Using particular moments from the novel The Mysterious Affair at Styles and at least two of the Carter short stories from The Bloody Chamber (yes, have works cited entries and parenthetical citations), how do these two authors, engage their readers within the worlds of the stories with their own reactions to the events of the stories?

For
this journal, you need to respond, citing textual moments from both Christie’s
and Carter’s texts, effectively and clearly to the prompt:

Using
particular moments from the novel The Mysterious Affair at Styles and at least
two of the Carter short stories from The Bloody Chamber (yes, have works cited
entries and parenthetical citations), how do these two authors, engage their
readers within the worlds of the stories with their own reactions to the events
of the stories? What do these authors do
to remind the readers that, as the participatory audience, they are, indeed,
active participants in the story telling?
How do they use rhetorical or literary devices to manipulate audience
response? How might being aware of such
manipulations serve a reader?

As
with all journals, I’m not interested in what I wrote in the lectures; I
literally know that stuff. I’m interested
in how you engage with those texts you read / watched and how you think about
them.
