"Thats is the way,she told herself.do everyting right and natural keep things absolutely naturaland there i be no need for any acting of all" 

 There is so much persofication to give a ms mary a charactization like this qoute i think that mary is women suspicious.mr mallory is very intelligent and make this story a suspence.she is a good acting with the polices.with the thoughts we can think like the character if i would could kill my husban i would act like ms mallory.This make my tink that she dont whant that the police sospect that he killd his wife.


 I love Bradbury's use of strong imagery in this story in order to help the reader visualize what is happening in the house. For example, 

She carried the meat into the kitchen, placed it in a pan, turned the oven on high, and shoved t inside. Then she washed her hands and ran upstairs to the bedroom. She sat down before the mirror, tidied her hair, touched up her lops and face. She tried a smile. It came out rather peculiar. She tried again.

 

i imagine mallory carried the meat and samline i think that she is thinink how he can act with the police.she is washed his hands because the evidence and he goes to there bedroom to thinhk how he can lie.he act like nothing happend to her husban.he is a good actor.i like how i old this qouete explaine my so i imagyne everything that happend in the story.

 

 i like this story a lot and old the storys of roald dahl this was my favorate because i like the storys of suspence and mystery.the message os this story is vey intersting dont trust in old the people because people can be bad.the charactization and the imagy make this story asome and i anderstand everything wirh that.i recomend to old the persons that like sorys of suspence.
