Sanger Zaroff, a world-renowned big-game hunter, intelligent and experienced, Rainsford uses his wits and physical abilities to outwit General Zaroff: “I hope the jaguar guns have come from Purdey’s. We should have some good hunting up the Amazon.” Hiding from Zaroff, he recalls his days fighting in the trenches of World War I, where he witnessed unimaginable violence: “Rainsford had dug himself in France when a second’s delay meant death. That had been a placid pastime compared to his digging now.” At the same time, the three-day chase reverses his life of privilege and ease, forcing him to sacrifice comfort and luxury to survive.

“Suspense arises naturally from good writing - it's not a spice to be added separately,” (Leigh Michaels). Suspense is an important aspect of writing, used to keep readers wondering and guessing what could happen next and how the story may end. Writers universally use this trait of suspense in their work to keep people interested in the writing, though there are many techniques they use to do this.

In recent decades, Cormac McCarthy has staked his claim as one of the all-time titans of American literature through publishing masterpieces like Blood Meridian, Suttree, and The Road. In his works his advanced level of technical mastery becomes apparent through his expertly harmonized coordination of literary elements toward certain narrative ends, such as the generation of suspense. In this light, McCarthy’s literary style is a practical one, in that he organizes literary elements in his works toward actualizing particular goals. In The Road, for instance, McCarthy directs his style throughout the text so as to maximize the feeling of suspense that readers experience throughout the book. This kind of stylistic maneuvering is expressed on pages 105-110 and pages 118-123 of the the text. But, it must be noted here that the generation of suspense in these passages does not result from similar stylistic approaches. McCarthy uses style in differently in Passage A and Passage B but ultimately toward the same end, namely generating suspense for readers of The Road. Passage A relies on dialogue to develop its suspense, whereas the style of Passage B relies on narrative action for its suspense.

This is a second forum that I am responding too and then noticed Nintendo people have picked reoccurring dreams including myself for this weeks forum. I wonder if it's because people might want to discover why they're having a recurring dream?

Many would argue that a story cannot exist while not made with human characters. The characters Murakami selects reveal his interest in humanity’s deepest secrets.. Most of his stories are told with a robust interior driven person teller, however every story boasts a singular, fascinating teller. The challenge of developing characters, each as person teller and therefore the characters with whom the author surrounds the teller, is one among the nice challenges of story-writing, his characters would be a perfect example to prove Murakami’s creative thinking. What sets Murakami apart in his development of fascinating characters is that he doesn’t set to the story-lines or realism to try to to the work. He turns the attention on his characters and really examines them – their motivations, their wishes, their fears, their inadequate feelings – and their humanity.

Right now I am hundreds of feet over the ocean while holding one hundred balloons, but first let me tell you how I got here. It all started like this; I was going to the balloon store. It was my cousins 16 birthday and there was going to be a big party. I was assigned to get the balloons. So, I did. I walked into the store, to be greeted by an old man. The man wore old fashion clothes and had hair as white as paper. I told the man I need some balloons, and he asked, “How many would you like?” “100 should be fine” I replied. “That’s a lot of balloons sir, you don’t want to float away” The old man said. In my mind I laughed. He started to fill up the balloons and it was at that moment that I started to worry. Was it possible to float away I said to myself, no stop that’s impossible I convinced myself. The balloons were done and I payed and managed to get them out the door. Then somehow, I started to float, higher and higher. And I quickly rose to an alarming height, too high to jump. People got out of their cars pointing, screaming and murmuring among themselves “that man’s floating” How did he get up there?” “Should we help him?” But it was too late. That brings us to the present, 1 day later (at least I think) floating over the ocean.
