Compare the ways in which Susan Hill

Compare the Ways in Which Susan Hill and Thomas Hardy Present Their Narratives of Suspense and the Supernatural in the Woman in Black and the Withered Arm? Both the Woman in Black and the Withered Arm are well known pieces of modern literature, and utilize both different and similar methods to present a narrative of the supernatural. In this assessment of the two books I will be considering the pace, tension, description, structure, style, literature devices and the creative writing within the two books.

About Candy's dog

It is in the second chapter that it is first brought up about Candy's dog being shot. It is Carson that initiates the argument. His first reason for killing Candy's dog was that it smelt saying "it stinks like hell" and "I can smell that dog a mile away. " He then backed this up by saying "got no teeth, damn near blind, can't eat. " Although Carlson says there are other things in favour of Candy's dog being killed you get the impression that his main reason was that the dog smelt and he wanted it out of the way.
