Show and Tell - Week 1

Tide of Grief - Jan. 10, 2005 Newsweek article. 

I wasted more than a day trying to the article but the blogger would not upload, no matter the size. I give up but will post the comments regarding the article.  

The article is entitled Tide of Grief, from Newsweek magazine.  It's about the Tsunami when it hit and killed more than 140,000 people.  The article is a good example of voice resonance.  It talks about the tsunami, the people, the survival stories.  The stories and pictures are eye opening.  The pictures say a thousand words by magnifying and supporting the articles resonance of grief, lost, pain.  The article like the pictures are written with feelings.  It gives you a sense of being there.  

The headlines, Tide of Grief, is impressive and tries to visually tie in the deaths, wooden casket boxes, and tide together visually.  The voice is one of knowledge and sorrow.  It changes throughout the article depending on the discussion.  The writing is very descriptive and picturesque, it indulges you to keep reading.
