Jekyll and Hyde chapter 8 Flashcards
‘it was a wild, cold,
seasonable night of march.’
‘and the thin trees
in the garden were lashing themselves along the railing.’
what effect does the length of the chapter have
the long chapter creates tension and builds suspense
‘it seemed to have swept
the streets of London unusually bare.’
‘that thing was
not my master.’
‘well, sir, it went so quick
and the creature was so doubled up.’
‘that masked thing
like a monkey.’
how does the sentence structure build tension
long sentences, elongated with commas and semi colons build tension and suspense. It adds pace to the writing and keeps the reader engaged
‘Utterson knew that he was
looking on the body of a self destroyer.’
‘we may at least
save his credit’
