I have always liked survival stories and Hatchet made me really about how fast our world can be turned upside down. I really appreciate the section when Brian tells how his teacher, Perpich, told him to "stay positive and stay on top of things" and "You are your most valuable asset. Don't forget that. You are the best thing you have.…

    Objective: For this essay, you will be analyzing Erik Larson’s style, revealing what devices he uses to convey his message(s) to his readers. The majority of the paper should be comprised of detailed close readings that analyze how his use of language contributes to an overall effect on the reader. Feel free to draw evidence from your journal (but don’t do so blindly, without considering if there are better options! You may end up taking only general ideas from the journal.). Your analysis should show real depth and insight, going beyond the obvious, and beyond what we have discussed in class. Your paper should also show an awareness of the entire novel. Focusing only on one section may hopelessly distort your analysis.…

    Stylistics is a branch of general linguistics. It is the study and interpretation of texts from a linguistic perspective. Stylistic devices and expressive means are involved in stylistics. Stylistics observes not only the nature of expressive means of the language, but their capacity of becoming a stylistic device. “Stylistic device is a conscious and intentional literary use of some of the facts of the language, that is, the most essential structural and semantic features of the language forms are viewed as generalizations, or a generative model” (Shakhovsky 92). Stylistic devices function in texts as marked units and they always carry some kind of, either emotive or logical, information (Galperin 30).…
