Have you ever been forced to do something and can’t do anything about it? That is how the characters feel in the story, “Harrison Bergeron.” The mode of literature in this story is an Irony.
In this story everybody has to be “handicapped” so they are all equal. The strong people have to wear weights so they are weak and the smart people have to wear a earpiece that rings every 20 seconds so they don’t think too much.
The mode of literature in this story is an irony. The reason for this is because the main character is not in control. The chaos in this story is that everybody is equal and they have to wear metal to keep them equal. The struggle for sanity in this story is when Harrison has to try to get free. The death in this story is when Harrison and his wife get killed.
The point of this story is that you when you get forced to do something you shouldn’t try to change it because you could possibly end up dying. Also that there is always that one person that stands out in the crowd.
