Wuthering heights......... Alliteration
This book took me back to 8th grade and when we had to find all the alliteration in that Edgar Allan Poe story. I found it everywhere like in chapter 2 it said "the first feathery flakes of a snow-shower." or in chapter 7 it said, "fingers wonderfully whitened with doing nothing and staying indoors." I thought that was really cool and it really adds to the quality of the book. When it was in its most boring parts, Lockwood or someone would use alliteration and I actually stopped and kept saying it out loud. I don't know, it just made me smile.

Great connection of literary term. I like how you included the flashback from 8th grade, even do i don't recall it lol. Awesome job
ReplyDeleteI think I meant 7th, it was whenever we had Mrs. McMinn
ReplyDeleteSo what exactly is alliteration? lol. I think its like the she sold seashells thing right? If so, then those are great examples. I must have missed that part in 7th grade because I didn't have her until the second semester. It is cool how you included that though, as Keamber said. I had to say some of the things like that outloud too to understand them. Over all Good job.
