NATURE IMAGE IN THE SHORT STORIES OF TED HUGHES: SNOW, THE HARVESTING AND THE RAIN HORSE

In this essay Hughes’ three short stories Snow, The Harvesting and The Rain Horse were analysed in terms of style.1 Psychic dissolution of the characters and their withdrawal from nature and their inner world were examined through his usage of language. The choice of words, sentence structure, punctuation, tone and rhythm were all analysed in detail to prove his style and achievement. The detailed study of these short stories showed vividly the intention of nature and the characters’ desperate situations with their neurotic behaviour
