How is the title of the story " The Accursed House" relevent to the story?​
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

The title 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society that is accursed with negative thoughts.

Explanation:

The Accursed House is a short story written by Emile Gabriau. The story is a sarcasm on the society where we live in, which does not get suspicious when people charge extra or does something bad but when stores charges less and do something good to you.

The author has used the sarcasm to portray a society 'under curse' (accurse) which represents the shallow thoughts of people. It presents a society where people are accursed with negativity.

<u>Thus the title of the story 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society accursed with negativity and negative mind-set.</u>
