Problem: The author Ling Ma was asked by NPR correspondent Scott Simon about the connections between the stories in her book "Bliss Montage." Ma's answer was both yes and no - while there is an emotional sensibility connecting all the stories, they are quite different and mostly focus on relationships. For this problem, select two assigned stories from the collection and analyze whether you see a connection or disparity (or both) between them. Consider what makes these stories similar or distinct, such as the emotional sensibility they share or specific characters that connect them. Ma suggests that her stories are about relationships, so consider how her depiction of these relationships connects or reinforces the differences between the stories and characters only in few chapters of the book like Los Angeles, Oranges, G, Peking Duke and Tomorrow.
