Journal 1

The narration differs from the dialect in that they are written in almost two different languages. The dialect is spoken and written in a Southern accent while the narration is written in a more formal manner. The effect of this difference is that it it highlights the Southern accent throughout the book and allows for the reader to experience the story and its setting as well as its atmosphere more vividly. It makes the reader feel closer to the book and its events and creates a southern atmosphere through the juxtopositioning of the language used in the narration and that used in the dialect.
