As it is seen in A Clean, Well-Lighted Place, the darkness that the old man and the older waiter feel can be expressed as an evilness that surrounds them. The darkness in the old man has led him to almost committing suicide. The older waiter however senses the darkness in the bar that he is in which is why he prefers the clean cafe as he has tried to explain to the young waiter on how the old man felt. In Isolation, that evilness is the mutated calf that is trying to cause harm to the people inside the farm. The similarities lie in how the darkness of one thing that has happened in one life can affect those around it. The old man affected the waiters in different ways and as for the mutated monster; its existence around the farm affected the people and made them fear for their lives. In A Clean, Well-Lighted Place, it shows how a dark loneliness fills the void of man. While in Isolation, the shadowy evil presence affects the ones living on a small isolated farm. The old man and waiters, share a common experience with the characters from Isolation to show how, in its own way, nature’s need to fill a vacuum. The everyday of the characters in both works were affected from having a normal life to a life of living in dark loneliness and evil around
