“In contrast, the American novelist and short story writer Ernest Hemingway made a point of writing in colloquial diction. The following description of a trip to Spain is from his novel The Sun Also Rises (1925):

“The bus climbed steadily up the road. The country was barren and rocks struck up through the clay. There was no grass beside the road. Looking back we could see the country spread out below. Far back the fields were squares of green and brown on the hillsides. Making the horizon were the brown mountains. They were strangely shaped. As we climbed higher the horizon kept changing…

"Several qualities contribute to the colloquial level of the diction: the plain syntax—short, either simple sentences or compound sentences made up of clauses linked by ‘and’; the monosyllabic, Anglo-Saxon vocabulary, with its emphasis on nouns…and the repetition of words…and sentence structures” (Hamilton 69-70).

"Atmosphere, a term taken from meteorology, means the predominant mood or TONE in all or part of a literary work, which may, for example, be joyeous, tranquil, melancholy, eerie, tense, or ominous...For example, Shakespeare's Macbeth begins with the following stage direction: Thunder and lighting. Enter three WITCHES" (Hamilton 89).

"Writers may use such symbols as they stand, as well as adapt other conventional concepts or events to give them personal or exclusive meanings, For example, the voyage as a symbol of self-discovery is a motif in such books as The Odyssey, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and Heart of Darkness." (Hamilton 86)
