Has there ever been a time when something was seen and a thought was brought to mind, what if, the universe was trying to speak to you saying that would happen to that you in the future? What about when it actually happened? Pete Hautman’s book Rash does just this in the act of foreshadowing. There are many times in the book when something is said or happens and then later in the book, a larger scale of that event or act happens. It brings about a strange sense of Deja vu.
What is foreshadowing? Foreshadowing is presenting an indication or suggestion beforehand. Foreshadowing occurs everyday but just goes unnoticed. Many of the main characters in Arsenic and Old Lace display foreshadowing throughout the play. Johnny shows more examples of foreshadowing than the other characters in the play.
In Jason Reitman’s independent film “Juno” a lot of foreshadowing started from the introduction of the movie. An example of this is the empty chair, which serves as a motif and ultimately defines the direction of the story. Juno stares at the chair in the beginning of the movie reminiscing on having sex with Bleeker and feeling saddened by having to put it up for sale. That prop served as a implicit meaning, it lies below the movies overall meaning but hints to how the pregnancy is handled by how Juno decides to give the baby up for adoption and maneuver as if the whole situation never happened. Camera angles played a big part in the movies overall expression.
(Wolff, 1995 p.1) Almost can be considered foreshadowing since he had a kinda counterintuitive ending. Continuing on here, Wolff brings in hidden meanings in the words he uses. All throughout the story he draws in little bits and pieces phrases you wouldn’t catch till the 3rd or 4th time you read them or when you think outside the box and put the two together. When Anders is in line and the teller closes her window
The Nest/ Foreshadowing I think that paragraph that said " After 3 blocks ,he slowed down, panting his face set with fury. the habit of thinking, encouraged by his parents at ever opportunity, began to function" foreshowed the middle and end of the story because at the begging of the story it said that Jimmy wanted to go on a hike with his friend named Paul but apparently Paul very bad kid his mom said that he stole candy from a store and is in a gang. the first paragraph i already knew that he was going to break his moms rule and go on a hike with is "bad" friend and i was right, and i think that Paul is a bad kid might be from his dad being a alcoholic in the middle of the story Jimmy invites Paul to his house for dinner and
One of the first examples of foreshadowing is when the children come out of school and start collecting stones and piling them up. Those stones would later on be used to stone Tessie to death. Another example of foreshadowing is when she told us that the men that were gathered were just smiling at jokes instead of laughing. That tells us that

Key Assignment One: “The Landlady” In “The Landlady,” by Roald Dahl, the author uses foreshadowing to alert the reader of the possible calamity that will befall the main character, Billy Weaver. Immediately, readers are provided with foreshadowing clues to the outcome of the story such as, “But the air was deadly cold and the wind was like a flat blade of ice on his cheeks” (Page 62). Roald Dahl drops hints ‘deadly cold’ and ‘flat blade of ice’, in the text, to foreshadow Billy's fate. Being that both statements are associated with violence, Billy may be in unavoidable grave danger.
The wild is a savage place that causes young boys to perform crazy, uncivilized actions. In William Golding’s, Lord of the Flies, and John Steinbeck’s, Of Mice and Men, the common theme of death was foreshadowed through Piggy only being considered useful for his spectacles, and the death of Candy’s dog, the fact that the boys hunt and eat pigs, and the death of the water snake, and the dehumanization of Piggy and Lennie. Piggy’s death is foreshadowed by only being considered useful for his spectacles, much like that of the reason for the death of Candy’s dog.
