“The Death Car” just this name can make reader to be fearful, and wonder what
about death car. Narrator wants this emotion that mentions above line conveyed to reader,
especially setting of the story which gives reader various feeling. So, I am going to criticize
the story. Reader knows that a couple are on the country side because in the text tells me that
they drove through the empty country roads. When the car looks to have a problem, narrator
describe that situation by using metaphor that is “the engine only coughed” and “the engine
died completely”. Those sentences express the car’s engine is stopping, and finally it really
stop. And whole atmosphere begins more horror as well. So, I think this story is so interesting because ‘the death car’ is one of urban legend that's suitably thrilling. It has sequence the situation is well and told to detail of situation to clearly so the readers feel like in those situations. The prominence point of this story is rhythm of the narrative of the events in a story, it fits perfectly. It can make the reader to flow with story. I have to appreciate about language in this writing because the author use the word that very easy to understand as the reader was in situation.
