Writing Style Of Han Kang

In the poem he veers from any pattern and words like, "abject louse," and "maggot," followed his reputation of having an angry diction. His work is completely impulsive which was seen as exotic and passionate, which certainly reflected the period.

We see the first sign of darkness, when the narrator reads the headline of his brother’s arrest, the narrator’s face is described as “trapped in the darkness which roared outside” (58). From then on, Baldwin uses darkness at times of despair, fear, and hopelessness.

One example of this is when Bradbury talks about how lonely the streets are when the main character is walking, “The streets were silent and long and empty with only his shadow moving like the shadow of the hawk in midcountry” (“Pedestrian 98”). It really lets the reader soak in the setting and let the reader feel what the main character is feeling. Another form of imagery in the text is when Bradbury talks about the houses and how they look. “And on his way he would see the cottages and homes with their dark windows, and it was not unlike walking in a graveyard where only the faint glimmers of firefly light appeared in flickers behind the windows” (“Pedestrian 96”). This quote is letting the reader know about the street being empty and dark with no one to be seen. One more example is when a cop car pulls up to the character, the car asked him to get in and then describes the inside of the car “He put his hand on to the door and peered into the back seat, which was like a little cell, a little black jail with bars. It smelled of riveted steel. It smells of harsh antiseptic, it smelled to clean and hard metallic. There was nothing safe there” (“Pedestrian 100”). This quote describes the unsettling feeling of the police car and the smell of the metal and

The poem suddenly becomes much darker in the last stanza and a Billy Collins explains how teachers, students or general readers of poetry ‘torture’ a poem by being what he believes is cruelly analytical. He says, “all they want to do is tie the poem to a chair with rope and torture a confession out of it”. Here, the poem is being personified yet again and this brings about an almost human connection between the reader and the poem. This use of personification is effective as it makes the

Mary Shelley utilizes figurative language in this excerpt to describe the surroundings of Frankenstein on his journey home and set the tone of gloomy, because of his brother’s death. Shelley uses personification to express the pattern of the raindrops as “violence quickly increasing” as if the raindrops were a person becoming very violent. This figurative language device develops the tone by tying into the violent actions of whoever murdered William, Frankenstein’s brother.
