In the Tell Tale Heart, Poe achieves the single effect of terror on the reader by his use of all the story’s components.

Mishima uses setting in the novel The Sound of Waves to highlight the theme that love empowers people to overcome hardships and challenges through the use of tone, characterization, and diction.…

shown very early on in the book. I think the main idea in this quote is racism. From the book itself as a reader I can tell that racism is a big part of the story line. The writing style seems to be descriptive. As the…
