Goblin Market – Blog 7

In the story “ Goblin Market “ the fruit in the 21st century can have more than one meaning. What I got from reading it , the fruit can be related to Adam and Eve . The fruit can symbolize evilness. When the devil tempts eve with fruit and then things weren’t as pure as how they first were . Laura and her sister can also symbolize purity so when she eats the fruit it takes that away from her . Afterwards things weren’t as good to Laura. This can be related to 21st century because sometimes there are men who can sweet talk women and make them believe them things no one else has said to them . One they had sweet talk them and make the last believe what they take advantage of the situation and later forget what they had said to the women at first .
