(Frank Edmund Smith)

Alfred Edgar Coppards short stories surely have proven worth a closer examination, and that is why I undertake to delve into one his late works,<Some Talk of Alexander>, written in 1937.
The focus of my work is on the storys perception, namely on its focalization in general and on the means used to present the main character the way the reader may perceive him.
