Blog entry #17 Never Let Me Go

"unfinished atmosphere" page 219
"atmosphere of something being held back" page 228

I've been noticing that the author repeats his imagery. Above, there are two examples. There also many other examples throughout the book. I even wrote about this imagery in one of my previous blogs. The author seems partial to the word "atmosphere," and often utilizes it to describe the general attitudes in a situation. For example, when Kathy reminisced about the Hailsham woods, the atmosphere was of mystique and fear. The author also describe tension as "atmosphere." In the car ride back from seeing the boat, the feeling that things were being held back was described as the atmosphere of the situation.
