Hills Like White Elephants: My Interpretation of the Play

This short story is about a couple discussing abortion. This girl, I do not want to jig, but the American men told me this is the only one between them. A girl wishes to continue his life and would like to bring a baby to explore the world, but the man said that it would keep them away from the world. This man has experience in this field, but women are not. She was passive and I did not want to talk about it after a while. There are many elements in the story, such as cutting, operation, control, innocence, irresponsibility.

"White elephant" is like a hill, a strange symbol. The elephant is big and white rather than typical gray, making the image more eye-catching. This can be interpreted as "the elephant in the room" of the language being spoken. This is consistent with this story as Americans and Jig talk about the possibility of abortion as they do so with hidden remarks. In addition, the word "white elephant" means that valuable assets are also a burden. And this burden is something you can not get rid of. This is an obvious reference to a couple's debate about unwanted pregnancies and the possibility of "removing". The burden on Americans exceeds the baby 's worth. This girl Jig is concerned about the effects of abortion on her view of life. She speaks in a hidden language, whatever her decision is, she loses something.

In "Mountains like white elephants", Jig explains the hills far away like a white elephant. This explanation indicates to jig that her pregnancy is valuable and burdensome. To understand the situation of the fixture, it is important to note that the white elephant is sacred and symbolizes the justice of the Southeast Asian monarchy. On the other hand, these elephants are expensive to maintain or maintain health. Because they can take care of the expensive needs of elephants, white elephants are often given to members of the royal families. But for ordinary people it means that being given a white elephant must bear a burden should be considered a valuable gift.
