TASK 2: PARAGRAPH
In The story ‘A Case of Identity’, I can identify 3 types of techniques used. The first technique
is limiting point of view. In the story we only know Mary’s point of view from what she saw
and think. I think that the second technique used is the right setting and imagery. The
setting in the story is somewhere in the walkway at the night, which is often silent and used
for focus-need conversations. Mary is also able to describe and image her relationship with
other characters. The third technique is cliffhanger, where it does not show an end.
