Greasy Lake My intent is to share with you comparisons of what the author portrays his characters to be rather than who hey really are. Allusion played a significant role in how the author described a theme throughout this story where the characters thought of themselves as the epitome of being bad in the short story “Greasy Lake”(Boyle).
