"A tiny furtive wedge of darkness beckoned him, a snicket, a hacket, an alley carved into the thickness of the building. It was

so narrow that at any moment, it seemed the overtopping walls would come together and squeeze it out of existence…. Walking as softly as an Indian, Jason passed through it, slid by a file of dustbins, and found the foot of the fire escape." Jason's actions as he enters the building at night in "Sonata for Harp and Bicycle" show us what?

<em>Jason's actions as he enters the building at night in "Sonata for Harp and Bicycle" show us what?</em>

  • <em>It shows us that Jason is in a difficult situation. “A tiny wedge of darkness…”  A wedge is something that can force and opening or a beginning, so this “wedge” appears as something that is going to help him somehow. A “snicket” is something very small that can be taken as if this way out, the “wedge”, is going to take Jason out but making a great effort. Those narrow spaces explained in this situation shows us the psychological aspects of Jason going through that specific event, by him seeing the way out too difficult but finally finding an opening through the fire escape.</em>

<h3>What synonym has a connotation that matches the text?</h3>

The synonym that has a connotation that matches the text is the rowdy one. A synonym refers to a word that is similar in meaning to another one. In this text, we can see that the word, rowdy is similar to the tone that we find in this text. A lot of things are happening at the same time. There is a thunderstorm, lightning, frightful games, and people on the ground.
