    The Moeny King

    • 298 Words

    Gene Yang uses the symbolism of Transformer and Jin Perms to demonstrate the idea that Jin wants to be an American + change his hair as an American and to look like an American. Symbolism is a literary technique that authors employ by attributed to natural objects or facts. At the beginning of the book, Jin and Wei-Chen meet in the first time in school and talk about the toy robot: “<What is that?>” “<A toy robot.>” “<He can change into a robot monkey.>” “<My father gave it to me just before I left. As a good-bye present.>” (39). Jin and Wei-Chen were talking about the toy robot but they were talking in their own language and not in english. It connects to my point because Jin wants to be an American but he still talking in his own language. At the middle of the book, Jin was at his locker, Wei-Chen and Suzy was walking in the hallway when Suzy and Wei-Chen saw Jin hair and they was surprise. “…” “…” “…Jin?” “What?” “Why is your hair- MMPH” “Nothing nice perm!” “Thanks! See you guys at lunch” “Yeah! See ya!” “Be Nice! He’s your best friend!” “Why is his hair a broccoli?!”(98). Jin change his hair to look like an American and act like an American. It connects to my point because Jin wants to look like an American but also he wanted to look like Greg to have a chance with Amelia. The author Gene Yang uses the symbolism of Transformer and Jin Perms to demonstrate the idea that Jin wants to be an American + change his hair as an American and to look like an…
