Rosey,Christie,Terrance,Adam,Paul.- Personification & Repetition

Personification;

PAGE 17
"Darling Harbour where buildings with the eyes gouged out"
This allows for audience to understand that 'Darling Harbour' has human characteristics and makes the reader feel intimidated that such a big object could be 'looking' at them.
This links back to Distinctive voices as Day has created a link between an imaginary world with reality. This is done through the use of eyes on a well known Australian icon Darling Harbour.

Repetition;

PAGE 63-64
"Dry, So Dry i had to prise it all out"
Through the use of repetition emphasis has been made on how the character has felt about martini. This creates a sympathetic and subjective feeling/sense (taste, or perhaps smell) for the reader.
