If I were to rewrite Into the Wild, I would not change my rhetoric, rather change the bias of the book. I would report the story exactly as it was and only leave my personal comments in the book to the epigraphs at the beginning of the chapters. My rhetoric would mostly be pathos, because if I am the author of a book and I want my readers to feel the same way as I do. I would bring a strong emotional aspect to my book in a way that the reader can't help but to choose my side, without all the bias comments Krakauer inputs. If anything, my story would be called: Into the Wild, as Seen Through the Emotions Of Alex Supertramp.
how could you bring more pathos into the book...im not sure if it is because i havent really tried to just read the book and enjoy it or if it is because i just dont like the book but i would not feel the need to even re write the story..but how would you re-write pathos into the story??
