As I read, I constantly felt that I was involved in the plotline and I was really present during the events described. It also amazes me how the author was able to adjust his use of imagery, and other rhetorical devices, to each individual character. I found that when he was describing the activities and personalities of the clutters he used positively connotated diction and painted scenes for the reader that evoked a feeling of happiness. When the two murderers were being drawn, Capote used the harshest of words and the scenes that they inhabited always seemed to be quite gloomy. It absolutely astounds me that simply selecting words carefully and implementing a couple choice rhetorical strategies can change an entire outlook.emilysroxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275709907776737334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6345193574538725994.post-45918188198685254422011-03-13T17:46:50.648-07:002011-03-13T17:46:50.648-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.emilysroxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275709907776737334noreply@blogger.com
