HOW does one of the Standard Lonelieness Package reflect and comment on a recent, specific social issue that is of cultural, political, and/or historical importance?

One approach to analyzing and interpreting literature is to consider the story alongside the historical context in which it was written in order to explore how the literature reflects and/or comments on a specific cultural moment or event.

For this essay, you will be tasked with researching and exploring historical context in relation to ONE of the stories in Charles Yu’s Sorry Please Thank You in order to answer the following question:

HOW does one of the short stories reflect and comment on a recent, specific social issue that is of cultural, political, and/or historical importance?
