Through flashbacks the author was able to fit the missing puzzles to the plot.

The structure and genre of the prose fiction are subverted almost immediately, allowing Haddon to propose the sight of a different world. In the opening chapter the genre of murder mystery is made clear through truncated sentences designed to create tension, "It was 7 minutes after midnight". However, when it is revealed that the murder victim is a Mrs. Shears' dog, the
There’s only so much we can learn about a newly found acquaintance if we only have a brief overview about him or her. The same can be applied to any written work we consider. Anyone is able to get the basics of a character, but nothing thoroughly explains his or her actions and thoughts like a well-developed flashback. These are literary devices some authors use to provide background relating to the persona being analyzed, as well as expand the lector’s comprehension of what’s going on at that point in the text. These are often seen in Dalton Trumbo’s
The rape of Rowe and Arnold’s intentions are parallel: “Yes I am your lover […] I’ll come inside you where its all secret and you'll give in to me and you'll love me” (6). The murder of Alleen Rowe corresponds with the assaults against Connie. It is the best to read the story with the approach of Charles Schmidt because the criminal acts reflect each other.
Through this letter, Shreve gives a fictional account of the life of Maren Hontvedt yet provides an entirely plausible, if not shocking, account of the events that could have happened on the night of the murders.

Additionally, the author portrays many flashbacks that the main characters are having as their death inches closer.
The novel uses many literary techniques such as foreshadowing and irony to build a strong connection between every scene and builds closer and closer to the development of the murder. There are many foreshadowing events which develop in the story before the death of Santiago. The murder is avoidable, but nobody stops it from happening. The dream, the weather, and nature all foreshadow Santiago 's death. The instance of foreshadowing at the beginning of the story is Santiago’s dream.
This flashback provided the reader the ability to go back in time to get portions of the plot explained and get more engulfed into the
The climax of this story is based on the tragic event, which takes place in a Canadian home. The family, which lives in the house, consists of Lloyd, the husband, with his wife, Doree and their three children. The use of flashbacks weaves the past events and circumstances to the subsequent actions. This "shift" happens after the tragic event is revealed.
As a brick house relies on a stable structure to support the house, a story relies on a narrative structure to not only support but to add to the overall story. In contrast to the traditional linear storytelling, Chronicles of a Death Foretold has a circular structure; the narrator takes the reader on a journalistic investigation (also known as an inverse detective) which keeps time looping back upon itself. Each section starts and ends within a few hours, the action of the novel is covered, but with this, the story goes off in digressions, flashbacks, and flashforwards, with the different people 's accounts of what happened. Marquez’s wordsmanship is impeccable, and despite the confusion, many may encounter, the story is extremely tight. We learn about the histories of numerous characters and get a basic character profile of each character detailing, their backgrounds leading up to Santiago 's death, and the reader learns about where life took them after his death.
