Truth be told, Zaroff even acclaim his pure breed dogs over the lives of the mariners he chases. Connell depicts Zaroff's sharp-pointed teeth and smacking red lips to dehumanize him and highlight his ruthless nature. Unexpectedly, Rainsford finds that General Zaroff is much more awful than the "rubbish" he contemptuously chases, without all…
