The story "Death by Scrabble" was compiled by an English writer Charlie Fish in 2005. This fictional report is about a partner and his better half participating in scrabble. Scrabble is a casino game where players earn items for the words made by them with available words. The storyline narrates how the words in the game reflect the useful life of the players. And towards the finish the way the game resulted in death of one of the players.
The story begins with "Conflict between husband and wife" which is itself an extremely interesting theme of lifestyle. Issues that are debatable inside our common life are always interesting to read. Copy writer has used this system to make the reader think that the storyline actually reveal reader's life. The circumstance has been brilliantly place. It is a hot Sunday when the few are seated at their home and playing scrabble. The description of the accessories like air conditioner, sofas evidently makes the reader to imagine vision of lounge in home.
The 42 season old man is the narrator of the storyplot and perhaps the main character. He has the utmost sense of hatred for his wife. He's annoyed of his current state and blames his better half for each mishap. The character seems to be well portrayed as he gives reasons for his hatred against his better half. The type of partner has been developed as an evil personality or negative one who is being hated by her hubby. She is dominating over man. Every action of her is disliked by her partner. Although narrator becomes biased while achieving this but she completely ties in the role she's played. Although a very abnormal but an important persona is the scrabble panel, which acts as a low profile hand making a link between both the players. It really is an innocent figure that is utilized for the cold conflict between players. Also, the words made on the scrabble board are actually producing this fictional tale. All the occurrences that happen in the storyline are the words on the scrabble panel.
The characters altogether lead to a story which will try to appeal to the readers. Most of the events derive from fictions which are evidence that the storyline is in fact the creativeness of the copy writer. For instance, the term EXPLODE made on scrabble actually contributes to explosion of air conditioning equipment. Although it might be considered a coincidence in real life but a rational reader would just label it as impossible. Also the story dulls because of its ultrasonic fiction. A little tremble makes the partner to swallow a real wood part scrabble letter which results in his death. The storyplot loses its interest because of the impracticality of occurrences.
Although most occurrences are fictional based however the suspense he has tried to develop in some places is praiseworthy. It evokes curiosity in the readers and compels those to find exactly what will happen next. Especially when the writer state governments "I play fly Ready to fly. " This event stirs up question in the reader's brain "Will he actually fly?" The article writer has brilliantly offered the scene creating buildup for the story to follow.
The tale drops its momentum by going irrelevant to the primary idea in some places like "My cousin Harold swallowed a bee when he was nine, his throat swelled and he died. " Also when the 42 calendar year old man cheats. It becomes making no sense an aged person is cheating. These occasions account for negative factors of the story. The reader thinks it to be making no sense or sometimes happenings such as this leave a mocking smile on the reader.
The terms of report is not formal as a person is narrating it but is simple. Words like "clack, clack" and short varieties like "I'd, I've" have been used that means it is informal. Vocabulary used will not lead to any complicalities in understanding the context of word. However, these words are correctly used remember a person narrating the storyplot will actually never use formal words.
The build of the storyplot is severe as the man is wanting to make clear the cruel patterns of her partner. Partner expresses his feelings of extreme dislike and uses words "I hate her", "Maybe I will kill her. " Also when he blames himself using phrase "stupid". The words used somehow produces a sense of sympathy in the reader for the husband.
On the whole, the storyline exerts a draw on the readers using its beginning theme, its simple writing, bits of suspense and touch of humor. Selecting words for scrabble is tremendous. The words seem to be destined for this function. However, the storyline will lose its hold when will go off topic to compare one of its incidents with another story. The end is disappointing that is very unreal and extreme fiction structured. People
