Uddrag
“Selfies” is a horror short story. There is fewer settings and it is shorter than a regular novel. There is told in the story that she is getting a brand-new phone and takes selfies with it (p.5 ll.15-23).
A selfie is a relative new phenomenon so the story doesn’t take place a long time ago. It could be a few years ago. The story is also taking place where she was born.
She is telling about the playground where she used to play (p.12 ll.11-12). It could be a symbol for when everything was good and when she was not taking over hundreds of selfies a day.
In that part there is also mood words to describe her running away. The ones who are following her could be the soul she has lost. For every picture she takes she is losing a bit of her soul every time.
She is also describing the only sound is the blood beating in her head and the air is scented with Jasmine (p.12 ll. 11, 12,13). It is all coming from her.
She is the first-person narrator. She is the speaker and the events are told through her perspective. The reader only knows what Ellie knows. It gives a closeness to Ellie.
