William Somerset Maugham was the one who said, "The novel is a picture of real life and manners, and of the time in which it was written".
Hello :)
When an author uses a fable with a moral top represent a message, it is most likely for the purpose of (Mary Poppins reference here) to use a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down.
