Uddrag
Isabelle Cossart gives a personal view of what happened in the dark time of the fall in 2005. To convince the receivers she uses a lot of pathos e.g. When I came back
about a month later, there were no more tourists. I laid off my 12 employees and sold four of my five tour vans to the Red Cross and Habitat for Humanity. (p. 1, line17-20)
This makes us as the audience feel a row of emotions such as compassion, understanding and anger towards the system. To convince the audience Isabelle Cossart uses her personal stories as a hidden argument.
