Woolf’s description is more effective‚ for she is able to clearly make her point through the description; whereas Dillard’s description and argument are separate‚ and she must connect

deterrence. “To take a life when a life has been lost is revenge‚ not justice”– Desmond Tutu. The ignorance that the public has for the death penalty is almost suffocating.

I felt as if they had lied to me.
