Brass Passage
Posted in Garden Antiques on 08/06/2008 09:31 pm by adminFind a literary technique in this passage: ?
“For a while, even cancer couldn’t keep Baba from the flea market. We made our garage sale treks on Saturdays, Baba the driver and me the navigator, and set up our displays on Sundays. Brass lamps. Baseball gloves. Ski jackets with broken zippers. Baba greeted acquaintances from the old country and I haggled with buyers over a dollar or two. Like any of it mattered. Like the day I would become an orphan wasn’t inching closer with each closing of shop.”
ANY WILL WORK.... thanks!!!
One literary technique in that passage is the one sometimes called "telegraphic style" ... that is, using the sentence fragments, "Brass lamps. Baseball gloves," and "Like any of it mattered." The technique is used to make the narrative sound more punchy, and also to realistically portray the conversational syle of the character being quoted.
