They connect factors such as character, setting, conflict, symbols, metaphor in ways that themes and ideas are incarnated. They use diction, syntax, rhetorical figure, rhythm to create a style that slips and pulls with meaning. They dress ideas in a pant suit or sweater; they haul meaning in a pick-up truck; they pull up a chair and ask life to lunch. F.

The touch of a cluster of leaves revolved it slowly, tracing, like the leg of a compass, a thin red circle in the water. It was after we started with Gatsby toward the house that the gardener saw Wilsons body a little way off in the grass, and the holocaust was complete (170).
It was all very careless and confused. They were careless people, Tom and Daisythey smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made(188).
