What is the tone in the most dangerous game?

Answer 1

Author's tone refers to the attitude the author has toward the subject of the story or to the characters in it. What makes this story all the more terrifying is the admiring way the author presents General Zaroff. While we can sense Rainsford's disgust and Horror at what Zaroff is doing on the island, the author does not seem to share that view. He is not really presented as the monster he is, but rather as a rational, thinking person who just needs something more challenging to hunt.

Answer 2

The tone in "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell is tense, suspenseful, and menacing. The story creates a sense of fear and danger as the protagonist finds himself pursued by a sadistic hunter on a remote island. The tone reflects the deadly game of cat and mouse that unfolds throughout the narrative.

Answer 3

I would say the mood is zestful. They like to have adventures.
