Chapter VI Pgs: 48-58

This chapter is filled with literary terms in use. Sarcasm is not on our list; however it is implemented very well here. “‘You must be careful not to mention him, my dear. Poor Frances has had a most unfortunate experience. Won’t it be fun, Robert? Don’t you think it will be fun, Jake?’” Frances is being incredibly sarcastic however she also incorporates two [RHETORICAL QUESTIONS] at the end of her rant that are very effective in conveying her point. She doesn’t need an answer to these questions since she is being sarcastic and by being sarcastic Jake and Robert both know that she firmly believes her trip to England will not be fun.
