Gaiman's writing and grammar
I think that it is interesting how Gaiman tends to use a lot of ands in one sentence. For example: "Which sounded friendly and true and real, and had no flapping rags in it" (64). I feel like this makes the writing sound more like an 11 year old. Have you guys noticed a strange writing techniques?

ReplyDeleteI also found that the main character's name is not revealed or told to the reader because the story is told by the point of view of main character and as we speak we do not refer to ourselves by our names. Therefore, the author did not include the name of the main character in the novel.
ReplyDeleteErmioni, I think that is an interesting point, I hadn't thought of it like that before.
