In the short story, the predator is Liam Ojeroati, Sniper is the hero, and it is used as a symbol of several things. In this civil war symbolizing the horrible price of the Irish Civil War, families often shared with combatants, turned over the murdered soldiers and found brothers' corpses to clarify all symbolism. I can see. Sniper also symbolizes the damage that such war may cause This society will suffer from aftereffects in the next few years and even old ladies will be enemies of murder. The sniper also symbolizes the change that people have to add in the war. He is a student's face, he may be before the war, but now he is killing his compatriot as a soldier and his own survival
To be honest, I do not think the sniper is symbolic. A symbol is a concrete representation of an abstract or symbolic thought. I think the sniper is something in the story, not part of war. Symbols are not actual ones
The power of this story does not come from a symbolic expression, but comes from the irony of the situation situationist's last situation that saw him as a brother watching the person he just killed. Perhaps you can say that this behavior is symbolic - it represents the fact that war and violence bring unpredictable damage to the parties involved.
One of the themes studied by Liam ยท Offarte in his short story "Sniper" is about the psychological impact of war and ongoing violence. In the short story, the sniper saw the armored car passing through the bridge and slowly advancing. After that, an old lady as an information provider approached the armored vehicle and started talking with enemy soldiers standing on the turret of the vehicle. After that, the sniper killed and aimed at the old lady who tried to escape with the soldier. The woman's body turned and she finally fell into the groove without life.
