My favorite symbol in “The Storm” was the can of shrimp. This was my favorite because it shows how much love Bobinot had for Calixta. Although, they did not have a lot of money, and their marrige was not perfect Bobinot tried. Bobinot was not a smart man or rich, but he tried. They have not even had sexual intercourse since Bibi was born, but he still tries. This is powerful because it shows how a real man is supposed to be. In society today, it is hard to find a “Bobinot”. A man who is willing to do the simple things just to make his wife happy. A man who is not perfect nor tries to be perfect, but he does his best. The can of shrimp is so simple, but he does Calixta likes them. This nice gesture shows Bobinot love for Calixta through the good and bad of their married.
