Faahfaahinta casharka
Natiijada casharka
I can explain how Carson uses language, form and structure to convey a sense of the chaos and horror of The Troubles.
Muuji qoraalka
Enjambment and caesura are used to create a chaotic atmosphere.
Rhetorical questions are used to represent the speaker's inner conflict.
The speaker's struggle to speak may represent the lack of voice civilians have in conflict.
The street names link to soldiers and battles from the Crimean War, illustrating that The Troubles were a 'war' too.
Carson uses lots of words linked to speed and urgency to convey a sense of fear and chaos.
