"The Destructors" is written by Graham Green, and "The Rocking Horse Winner" by D.H. Lawrence.When contrasting these two stories, we will consider the plot, characters, story line, and each authors approach. Another point to be considered is the intent and mood each author sets forth. . In the story " The Destructors" the story begins in a London car park called Northwood Terrace, nine years after the end of World War II. The plot deals with a gang of young boys from the street whose primary purpose is to destroy the house of Mr. Thomas without him knowing it. By profession Mr. Thomas has been a builder and decorator. The Wormsley Gang refers to him as an Old Misery. He is viewed as a mean old man. The only time he is usually seen is when he is traveling to and from the marketplace once or twice a week. In the "The Rocking Horse Winner", the story starts off around a young boy Paul who hears unspoken phrases around his home saying there has to be more money to live a prosperous life.
