In my
Second blog about It by Stephen King i will discuss about king use of imagery.
King has a good habit of using imagery in this book. This is another example of
imagery. “If I do, will you leave us alone?” Adrian was wheezing with fright,
almost crying, looking from Unwin to Dubay to Garton with terrified eyes.“Just give me the fucker!”Adrian handed it
over. Garton produced a switch knife from the left front pocket of his jeans
and cut it into two pieces. He rubbed the pieces against the seat of his jeans.
Then he dropped them to his feet and stomped them.Don Hagarty backed away a
little while their attention was divided between Adrian and the hat—he was
looking, he said, for a cop.“Now will you let us al—” Adrian Mellon began, and
that was when Garton punched him in the face, driving him back against the
waist-high pedestrian railing of the bridge. Adrian screamed, clapping his
hands to his mouth. Blood poured through his fingers.”
In this
part of the story i'm give you a little bit of background about who Adrian and
Don Hagarty . Both of these character are homosexual character who date each.
the other character are a bunch of boys who are homophobic. i can see that the
author use imagery because he add sentence like " Adrian was wheezing with
fright, almost crying, looking from Unwin to Dubay to Garton with terrified
eyes." which can make the reader see a visual of Adrian face crying and
terrified that these boys might beat him up . not only that but that whole part use imagery cause the reader can see how this is unfolding. i like that the author uses imagery in his story because it add strength to
the visual of the books. i like this scene because we can see that author era
was the era of homophobic and that at the time any person who was homosexual
would get beat up . so this addition of reality to the story makes the reader
of this era become more surprise. King has a very amazing way of writing
because of his style not only does he use imagery but he add negative
connotation word to show the reader how bad this situation is getting . he add negative connotation like " Fucker,cut,punch,knife,stomped,cop,leave, and screamed" word like this makes the reader know that the situation that Adrian is in a negative situation.
the book get very interesting every time i read and it get scary and weirder every time.
