Answer:

Joan Didion made use of subtle similes in her essay and also made good use of personification as well as rhetorical devices.

Explanation:

In "Goodbye to All That", Joan Didion compares the experiences in New York to what happens at a fair. Fairs as she says lures people in through the loud buzzers, lights and games. She became tired of the NYC fair. she enjoyed the games as a child and was eager to play as many games as she could, but Didion outgrows the city and those stuffs do not intrigue her anymore.

Didion sees NYC as a fate that is legendary and a thought that represents something, this exposition also depicts NYC as much superior to anything.

How does the author's diction affect the tone of the text?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Authors choice of words give a emotional effect to the reader.

Explanation:

Remember that diction is the authors choice of words or phrases he/she uses in a story. In this case the author using certain words and phrases can give a emotional effect to the reader because if you use terms that are serious it will give off a serious tone but if you are trying to come off as serious but using terms or phrases that don't go with that tone you are trying to give off, it might give the reader a different emotional effect that you weren't trying to give.

Hope this helps.
