(One story is "The most dangerous game")
I would like someone to give me an example essay as to how "The most dangerous game"(Connel).
Create suspense? From early in the story we know that the antagonist hunts men, not animals. That's suspenseful for me!
What are some of the details that help build that suspense?
One way is that the hunter is getting hunted?
Yes, but find the exact quotes from the story.
IDK what kind of quotes I can use. What kind of quotes do you think I should use?
Use quotes that help build suspense.
Here's an example:
" Again he heard the
sound, and again. Somewhere, off in the blackness, someone had fired a
gun three times."
"An abrupt sound startled him. Off to the right he heard it, and his ears, expert in such matters, could not be mistaken. Again he heard the sound, and again. Somewhere, off in the blackness.”
