Gorilla, My Love Describe symbolism in Gorilla, My Love by Toni Cade Bambara Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 11:58 Last updated by Jill W on 26 Oct 15:22
One symbol in the story is the map. Once seen as a symbol of following directions, the map becomes a symbol of "adult" directions, which Hazel often chooses to ignore as she gets older.
