The assignment wants to analyze your knowledge of Gothic literature. For that reason, I can't write your short story, but I'll show you how to write it.

<h3>Short story structure</h3>
  • Exposition: Introduce your characters and the environment where the story will take place.
  • Rising action: Begin to develop the gothic nature of the short story, making the story's tension gradually increase.
  • Climax: Present the most important point of the story, where the Gothicism stands out and the tension of the story reaches its maximum.
  • Falling action: Show what happened after the event that formed the climax and start to ease the tension.
  • Conclusion: Finish the story and show how each character will continue their lives.

Gothic literature has very precise and characteristic elements. You should use these elements to express the Gothicism of your story and strengthen the narrative's points. These elements are:

  1. Mysticism.
  2. Horror.
  3. Mentions of death.
  4. Sadness.
  5. supernatural elements.
  6. Isolation and loneliness.
  7. Thriller.
  8. Negative feelings.

Below you can see an example of how your short story exposition might be written.

<em>The mansion in the center of town was imposing and had a dark and mysterious air. Philip knew that his stay in the mansion would promote events he was not used to, as as soon as he entered he felt a shiver take over his body and a feeling of loneliness and distress invaded his heart.</em>

3. Craft and Structure: Why does the narrator compare the wait for her father to
kherson [118]

In "Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi, the narrator compares the wait for her father to come home to "the same silence as before a storm" because:

The silence before a storm is broken by awful thunders and heavy rain. Similarly, the silence in her home as she, her mother, and her grandmother waited for her father to return could be broken by awful news.

  • "Persepolis" is a graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi based on her life experiences as child in Iran during the revolution.
  • In the story, the narrator is also just a child. Her father has left home to take pictures of the demonstrators out in the streets.
  • Taking photos was forbidden, and her father had been arrested before.
  • The family was now afraid something worse might happen to him.
  • They waited for him in complete silence. The narrator compares that situation to the silence before a storm.
  • It is that calm moment before something terrible happens.
  • With the storm, it is the heavy rain and the thunders. With the family, it could be the bad news of the father's death.
