Introduction Literature texts have many functions, such as depicting society and passing social lessons to the reader; in this paper, I have pointed out the social lessons from four texts. The texts include; In the Cutting OF a Drink, A Little Matter of Marriage, Beautiful Spurted Blood, and Out of Alien Days. We will begin by analyzing In the Cutting of a Drink. In the Cutting of a Drink The love and efforts a family puts when it comes to a loved one are well captured in this literature. After Mansa stopped going to school, her mother still pleaded with her, but this did not bear any fruits. Her family organized for her to get housekeeping and sewing skills from another woman, but this venture did not last. After this arrangement, Mansa only visited her family one Christmas before going missing for 12 years. The narrator, Mansa’s brother, leaves the country to go to the city to look for his long-lost sister. The narrator is not fazed or stopped by how huge the city is or the fact that his last memory of his sister was from 12 years ago; during his narration, he reminds his mother the last time they saw Mansa, she was ten years old, and a lot may have changed this is captured when he acknowledges in his narration that girls grow fast In a huge metropolitan area, he doesn’t know her residence or marital status, but this doesn’t deter him. The possibility that Mansa may have passed away is not lost on his brother but what brings him comfort is the knowledge that if this is the outcome, his sister ghost will be at peace, knowing fully well that she has not been forgotten. Mansa’s current condition made her mother and her little sister weep during the narration. It is clear that the people who are hurt and affected the most by our decision are our family, and therefore their feelings should be considered when making a life decision. Duayaw and the narrator are so different. Despite acknowledging the beauty of Duayaw’s friend, the narrator still frowns at the idea of marrying someone from a different tribe. However, despite how they view the changes in society differently, Duayaw is still kind to him. Duayaw offered him a place to stay, food, paid for his ticket, and even drink when they went out. Despite acknowledging how difficult the search would be Duayaw joined in on the search. They decided on the little things they would do. Change is the only constant thing, and how we all adapt to it may differ. Still, we should always be grounded by moral values such as kindness, generosity, and respect when we interact despite our different views. A little Matter of Marriage This literature depicts the discrimination persons living with disability faces in society. The third born in the family is described as ugly and crippled. A name is part of a person’s identity, but even that he is denied. The society in this literature is also fond of giving persons living with disabilities nasty names. Despite being the youngest, he was cast aside and made to live on his own. His love for tending to his plant made them deem him crazy. He is the only one who suspected the man who captured his sister’s heart was not good. He warned his sister and even gave her the means to test the suitor. This all goes to show that he was a good judge of character. The flowers he loved so much wilted when his sister was calling out for help.on the way to help his sister, he was veraciously attacked by a bird, but he was able to defeat it with a slight backhand. He had clubfoot, but even this did not slow him down. According to the narrator, he climbed
