Heart Of Darkness Narrative Structure
1,193 wordsHeart of Darkness Critique Critique Period 2 One said once, of Heart of Darkness, that this amazing tale that was not so much told as suggested to me in desolate exclamations, completed in shrugs, in interrupted phrases, in hints ending in deep sighs. This effect was created by the illusions Conrad made through use of diction, style, and narrative structure. A novel critique has a quite complicated task in his analysis of a novel.

Harlem? by Langston Hughes, I determined that the main difference between the two poems is both poets? use of diction.
