Show transcript
Considering the ordering of ideas is important when analysing the structure of a text. Saramago purposely withholds information in 'Blindness' to build suspense and intrigue. We must always ask ourselves why a writer chose to structure their writing in the way they did. Time conjunctions can help us to write effective structural analysis.
