1) I think the characters and plot are extremely similar, by that I mean how in the end the same things happen and that there is someone being changed. Let us start with the characters, there is Bartleby and then there is the lawyer and they parallel Alymer and Georgina. Both the lawyer and Alymer want Bartleby and Georgina to change. When the lawyer and Alymer force the change they end up killing the people they are changing. The difference is how the story goes, but that is needed to have a different story instead of the same exact story. Like the lawyer is trying to change Bartleby's personality and Alymer is trying to remove a birthmark off of Georgina. When finally though that each character has changed they end up dying. Now yes Bartleby starved himself, but it was because of the force change of surrounding and how he couldn't be accepted for who he was just like how Georgina wasn't accepted for how she looked, but the birthmark was apart of her essential.
2) You learn from both stories that you should just accept people for who they are instead of forcefully changing them, because the people you try to change are already good people and by changing them it could have drastic outcomes.
