Explanation:

The story 'Interlopers' is about a feud between two families over a forest land. The two families refused to compromise the ownership of the land until their actions put Georg and Ulrich in a difficult situation. The story itself is symbolic. Human conflict, greed, anger, jealousy are been analyzed in this story. The story also explains that we should reconsider our values especially in times of crises. Georg and Ulrich lived their lives in hatred for each other because none of them wanted to give up on the issue until they met their waterloo. When they are trapped by the trees, they were left with no option other than to reconcile. After the reconciliation, the wolves appear and this is an indication of the consequences of their behaviour.
