The author Anita Desai had a lot of changes in pace during Games at twilight. Some of the changes of pacing are:
1. The kids are about to play hide and seek and they are excited and the pace of the story is fast. But as soon as Ravi hides the pace is slow and the story tends to get contemplative and it slowly connects to the thoughts and Ravi's memories.
2. One of the changes in pace that is most exciting is when Ravi finaly decides to finish the game by going to the post and say Den!. By the time he says that, the other kids cannot recognize him. A lot of time has passed and now the kids don't even recognize him. It is such an exciting change of pace and time.
The reader may interpret the story in different ways due to the fact that the perspective of Ravi is in a different pace of the other kids perspective.
Some of the examples of this change of pace are:
- <span>It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was.
</span>- Ravi had never cared to enter such a dark and depressing mortuary of defunct household goods seething with such unspeakable and alarming animal life but, <span> Ravi suddenly slipped off the flowerpot and through the crack and was gone.
</span>- <span>for minutes, hours, his legs began to tremble with the effort, the inaction. By now he could see enough in the dark to make out the large solid shapes of old wardrobes, broken buckets, and bedsteads piled on top of each other around him. He recognized an old bathtub
</span>- <span>It grew darker in the shed as the light at the door grew softer, fuzzier, turned to a kind of crumbling yellow pollen that turned to yellow fur, blue fur, gray fur. Evening. Twilight.
</span>- <span>It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was. They had quite forgotten him.</span>
Answer:
Dear Mr. /Miss...
I am curious about your favorite candy! Do you prefer Chocolate or Gummy bears, Chips or Candy Corn, Soda or Energy drinks? There are so many different candy's that it is almost impossible to keep track, but not just with the quantity with the quality too! You may ask what my point is. It is simple : We are checking every day on quality: Is the car good? Does my phone have a good capacity? But why don't we care how good the Candy's actually are for us? In one cane of Coke there are 17 cubes of sugar (if there is even real sugar in there, because some companies are using substitutes!) and in one flavor of gummy bears aren't even real fruits used! Why don't we care about food and especially about candy's?
Thank you for your time and have a nice day!
