<p>If you have to comment/write about the style of the author in a novel, what would you write about? for summer hw, thanks.</p>
<p>Well, you’d talk about the literary techniques/elements (word choice, syntax, etc.) the author uses in order to create his/her style and the effect of said techniques/style on the reader.</p>

<p>thanks, would foreshadowing be an element too?</p>
<p>Yes, of course</p>
<p>More loosely, style means formal/informal. It kind of has to do with the audience and themes. Write about how you feel the author is speaking to you.</p>
<p>which means just saying ‘narrative’ isn’t enough…<em>sigh</em></p>
