I will be writing about ‘O What Is That Sound’ and the different techniques that Auden uses to tell the story. Cleverly the poem can be interpreted in more than one way depending on how you read the poem. The poem has two voices off a husband and wife.

As one ex-slave put it‚ “No day dawns for the slave‚ nor is it looked for. It is all night — night forever.” For many‚ the long night of slavery only ended in

“Stop all the clocks‚ cut off the telephone” by W. H.
