Additions that I think use language or make links particularly well I have changed the colour of.

__ **Imagery, Descriptive language, Figurative Language etc** __ p.42. "No- the toilets were the worst part. Filthy pits- dug out in the open. We werent allowed privacy." The image created by the reader whilst reading this line is extremely powerful and helps the reader visualise exactly how discusting and filthy the camps were for the POW victims. This statment is an example of Survival and War and Atrocities.

**__Relationship between the Visual and Spoken/ Written__** p 41. the machine gun fire shows the horror of the experience compared to the lack of emotion shown in their voices . this shows that much from ww2 has been hidden for many years.

**__What is Visible and what is Invisible__** pg. the visible object of "chop bone"- this object was Bridie and Shiela's one way of surviving those awful and tortuerous days in the POW camps, they shared this one delight with such care and protection as it was a __surviving__ method that gave hope and enjoyment. **__Symbolism__** p. 46 scene5- they announced they were forming an orchestra – no mean feat since we didn’teven have a tin drum in camp. The orchestra was a symbol of hope and was usedas a distraction to take the woman away from what was happening and bringhappiness into their lives. **__﻿__**
