Strauss starts to overthink the accident and he kept finding ways to make himself feel guilty. Strauss’s usage of these simple, short sentences made me feel as if he was having trouble speaking about the topic because it was such an intense moment. I felt as if he was choking as he tried to write it, which created a sense of emotional drama within me. Another example of Strauss’s dramatic tone: “Self-hate is rarely unconditional. I don’t pretend it’s

Some of the ways it incorporates this by 'sperating sentences, repeating words, and in a way talking to the reader.

His story was not only a sequence of events, but also an adventure. He tells the story as if the reader is there and explains it as if the reader is a character standing there with the rest.

Before Tim Piazza’s night begins, he reaches in a closet that “his mother will soon visit to select the clothes he will wear in his coffin.” After the night of “torture”, Tim’s family will be reunited one last time with “the redheaded boy they have loved so well” so he does not “die alone”. These pieces of wording are prime examples of the instrumentality of emotionally involving the audience in any piece of writing.

One of the most important qualities within a story is whether or not the narrator is reliable. In most cases, the reader never takes this “narrator” into question as it is some omniscient being who is easily forgotten. The cases, in which the narrator comes into play in the reader’s mind, are typically when the narrator is of homodiegetic narration. This is a common device in more narrative texts and can even be used as a tool to make the reader feel a more personal touch to the story. If this trust between the narrator and the reader is breached the whole story it can take a different look towards the reader.
The structure of the story graphs out the narrator 's life in chronological order. Each year is unique by presenting new information about the narrator 's life along with simple conclusions within that year. Throughout the years, a reader can draw
