Explanation:
Answer:
- The story revolves around a mysterious cursed talisman—a monkey’s paw that symbolizes greed—everything that its owner could possibly wish for and the unrestricted ability to make it happen. This power makes the paw alluring, even to unselfish people who desire nothing and have everything they need. Mr. White, for example, is eager to procure the paw, even though he admits he is in need of nothing and is unsure of what to wish for. Herbert jokingly suggests that his father wish for money, which he does not need, just for the sake of it. This thought process illustrates how easily the paw can sway minds. The paw represents greed and brings out the selfish desire dormant in even the most content people. The wish is granted, but with unexpected, sinister consequences.
- Keeping in mind the motif of three, one of the most common representations of a group of three in Western culture is the Holy Trinity from Christianity. It refers to Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. The monkey's paw hails from a faraway land where it was cursed by an Indian holy man – making it an anti-Christian symbol. Hence it disregards Christianity and the Holy Trinity, bringing unfortunate consequences to the family that indulges in it.

One possible theme of "A Raisin in the Sun" is that people often become frustrated after experiencing injustice.
The story follows the Youngers, an African-American family, in 1950s Chicago. Mr. Younger had died and the family is awaiting a $10,000 inheritance. The family members have different ideas of how to better their financial situation with the money, but the decision was ultimately made by Mama. Mama puts some of the money down on a house and decided to give the rest to Walter to invest in a liquor store as long as he promised to help Beneatha pay for her education to become a doctor.
The problem is that Walter gives the money to his acquaintances, who spend it all. The family becomes upset about the loss of money, so when the neighborhood where Mama bought the house, which happens to be an all white neighborhood, offers money to avoid racial conflict, the family considers it. However, Mama says they cannot accept it essentially because it would solidify the belief that people that are white are better than people that are black. Through these events the family experiences injustice and becomes frustrated with their lack of money and the racism in their society.
