Writing styles

For our last unit we have been discussing narratives from various authora and how they influence the writing process. These authors use various techniques ti appeal to their readers' emotions. For example,  Jamaica Kincaid in her novela, A Small Place writes in 2nd person point of view and takes her readers through a tour of Antigua.  Through this tour we see all the beautiful there is to Antigua as well as the corrupt underlying structure that touriats do not seem to see or care about. She continuously repeats "you are on holiday" to show these tourists selfish acts. Through 2nd person point of view, us readers can empathize with Kincaid and how she feels toward tourists.  We can understand how the natives really feel about how the tourist is taken better care of than the native. A writing style can have an effect on the way a reader interprets a work.
