In general, cultures all over the world are similar. Each has their religion, language, tradition and practices and people. Culture only differs on who, what, why and how. All cultures have the same basic foundation but vary on these questions like Who are the gods of their gods, what are the practices that they must follow, what are the cultural distinction between man and woman and what are the language they used in communication.
Old money is scornful of new money; in America, class rivalry can breed stereotypes. This is because Tom exclaims

Araby is a great story! I just read it recently for class too. I believe that the bazaar the narrator attends is the best symbol for escaping monotony. The bazaar symbolizes everything exotic and unfamiliar to the narrator, who is experiencing a rather mundane and dreary life. He idealizes it and looks forward to going. However, when he finally gets there, he realizes that it is not all he thought it would be, which ultimately depresses him because it seems that life will never stop being monotonous. I hope this helps!
