barber shop
The primary symbol in Hernando Téllez's "Just Lather, That's All" is the barber's straight razor. It represents his internal conflict between duty and morality as he grapples with the decision whether or not to kill Captain Torres.
The setting is probably in a war zone. If you are in an advanced english class then you will probably be asked about the setting clues. If not then you can just answer the barber shop. One setting clue is that the other character is a captain and you know that in wars there are captains, generals, etc... Also it might have been in maybe the mid 1800 to the late 1900s because of the razor and the lather. We have electric ones now and we don't use the razors because you might cut them.
he takes it very seriously.

It uses symbolism and irony.

The Barber doesn't want any blood on his hands, instead he only wants the lather of the shaving cream. Pretty straight to the pointThere is a bit more to it. The title signifies the ultimate decision the barber makes between killing the soldier (blood) and providing him with a 'perfect' shave (no blood, just lather)
In "Just Lather, That's All," the author Hernando Téllez uses the straight razor as a symbol of danger and the intent to murder. It represents the barber's internal conflict between his professional duty to shave Captain Torres and his personal desire to seek revenge for the atrocities committed by the captain.
just a website thats all
The use of symbolism and irony contributes to the depth and drama of the situation.
The climax in a story is the main event and usually the most 'exiting' part of a story.
