MS. Found in a Bottle
There were many disasters that had happened in the story. There was the horrendous wreck of the ship in the solemn simoon a combination of a sand storm, typhoon, and hurricane. The ship was wrecked bye a deluge of waves creating a lot of chaos. The only survivors were the narrator and old swede.The device of reading a message in a bottle popular because someone will have to find it. Because of the rareness of the message in the bottle someone will find it and open it. This is a success in keeping the reader's interest because the reader does not know where the message in the bottle will go. It provides an eloquent and notorious journey. My favorite quote is, "The circles rapidly grow small-we are plunging madly within the grasp of the whirlpool-and amid a roaring, and bellowing, and thundering of ocean and tempest, the ship is quivering-oh God!-and going down!" This quote provides an image and gets the readers mind thinking.
