Answer:
Loser and At Dusk...
both are amazing stories let's compare them.
so first, Loser is a tender story about Donald Zinkoss, a young character who demonstrates great self-acceptance and who is not afraid to fail. With the encouragement of his family, he learns to approach life with a positive spirit and to enjoy all that it has to offer.
Now about at Dusk. 'Dusk' by Saki is about Norman Gatsby, who's cheated by a young man about needing money. He tells Gatsby that he had set out to buy some soap and has now forgotten which hotel he's staying at. Initially, Gatsby is suspicious, but he later finds a bar of soap on the ground, which confirms the young man's story.
The themes in "Loser" include success, persistence, and conformity while the themes in "at dusk" include perception, deception, and guilt.
The loser is the story of a boy who was branded a loser by his classmates because of his poor performance in school and athletics. He was persistent and was eventually successful.
At Dusk is a poem about deception. It's hard to see people as they truly are at dusk. In about city, everyone is a stranger. The themes include perception, deception, and guilt.
