Blog for "Scar" & "The Red Candle" & "The Moon Lady"

Please write 300 words about the last three stories of the first section of the book. Which of the three did you like best? Why? What themes, motifs (recurring structures, contrasts, literary devices that help to develop the themes), and symbols did you notice? Do you have any predictions for any of the characters? Why do you think this section is called "Feathers From A Thousand Li Away"? Hint: Re-read the first page of the section -- the parable about the woman and the swan -- and try to make some connections between it and the stories in this section.
