The most succesful element that creates suspense in the opening paragraph of The War of Worlds is the third person all knowing narrator. The story grabs your attention from the beggining by giving us a bird eye view of everything that has been going on prior to the beggining of the action. The use of comparison also adds a nice element of suspense. The author tells us the vast difference in intellect and resources between the invaders and human by using a common comparison, like that of a human watching something through a microscope, but without giving us any datail, leaving us wanting more. He also goes on to elaborate on how trivial our little everyday lives are compared to what he knows is coming soon. He also builds up anticipation by telling us that this isn't a spur of the moment decision, we've been watched for a long time, plans have been hatching for a while, the invasion is inevitable, and we, along with the protagonists, have no idea of what's coming, and we can't wait to find out.
Answer:
All the men gathered around the great oak because it served as a symbol of Ilium Works and they did it in order to sing the anthem entitled, "Love's Sweet Song."
Explanation:
The question is related to the novel entitled, "Player Piano," which was written by<em> Kurt Vonnegut</em>. It centers on the story of a futuristic society where widespread mechanization flourished.
Ilium Works is a company which owns a <em>green island</em> called "The Meadows,." This served as a location for <u>company retreats.</u> In the island is an oak tree, which is said to be a classical symbol of Golden Age.
However, <u><em>the oak is also a symbol of the company.</em></u> The purpose of the company retreat is to allow the people to get back to nature. However, this sounds ironic because <u>it contradicts the order of company loyalty in Ilium Works.</u>
