Describe the ways that Death of a Pig is stylistically like and unlike the essays from Annie Dillard (Total Eclipse) and Malcolm Gladwell (The Ketchup Conundrum).

Death of a pig is similar to the essays Total eclipse and the Ketchup Conundrum in the sense that all of these include in them some kind of food in them, taste in them.

Explanation:

The Death of a pig talks about a person who wants to save some one whom he really cares about in the story from dying and saving from a disease which is life threatening. Thus it is a tragic story and a sad story.

In this story, the man thought that since the disease was contagious and since it could pass on from one person to the other person or to any living being, he would also soon become like the pig.
