The narrative discourse was written in a chronological sequence of events behind the mystery are written in a way similar to expository narrative. However, the fiction narrative was meant for entertaining the reader and it makes the story appealing to the reader. The fiction narrative was also meant to stir the emotional response of the reader. What makes the narrative somehow different from the expository one is the writing of the content. The author stylizes his writings by speaking from the viewpoint of different characters. He also complicates the story rather than being straightforward and creates the story in a way that makes the reader to believe that the events are in the narrative form. Narrative Discourse The narrative discourse is distinct from the story because the events are arranged in a chronological manner. Instead of arranging the information of the story in a manner that makes sense, the author switches the story between the characters or moves the reader through flashbacks and flash-forwards. Although narratives of all genres are ubiquitous in the day-to-day life, Doyle’s narrative does not leverage the aspects that separate narrative from expository discourse. In the narrative discourse, Doyle employs varied approaches that include the solution to the narrative. For example the dialogue between Watson and Holmes provides a clear understanding of the story. For instance, “was there a secret marriage?” also reveals the way the Holmes condescends the views of women in the story (Doyle, n.d, p. 8). One of the approaches employed in the story is the conversational approach, which the author included in the fiction work as the key aspect to the narrative discourse. The second approach on narrative discourse provides a new genre of literary texts that represents a certain meaning. Suspense Doyle also uses suspense in the mystery story that leaves the reader to keep thinking about what happens next in the story. The author creates suspense in the story through explaining the atmosphere of the narrative in order to enable the reader to understand what is around him or her or what the people around the reader are doing. Suspense is used in narratives in order to enable the reader to think, or focus into insight of the story. It also allows people to make conclusions after reading and understanding the story. Doyle wrote the story in order to create suspense and in many phrases, Holmes reveals suspense. For example, Holmes tells Watson that “you know my methods….it’s elementary” (Dyle, n.d p. 2 and 3). Therefore, based on the extraordinary powers of observation, Watson made the solution upon the suspense created by Holmes. Doyle seems to have used the narrative structure of the first person account. The first person account seems to have destroyed the tension or suspense created in the story. This is because Holmes provided explanation of the narrative as he continued to narrate the story a long way. This makes the story unappealing especially when Holmes is appearing unbearably conceited when narrating the story. Even so, when Doyle sets the plot, it creates suspense because the skills employed in writing the story makes the plot difficult for the reader to know exactly the way the plot is going to untangle. For instance, Doyle says that” Do not join in” (Holt and Doyle 1999, p 25). This statement reveals that no one knows what Holmes will do next to Watson when he tells him not to join in. Therefore, Dr. Watson is left in suspense as the reader is left in suspense too because both of them do not understand what Holmes is exactly doing. Moreover, Holmes creates and maintains suspense when he asked in case Watson minded breaking the law.
