Tomorrow, when the war began - Before reading
How do you think the story will be written?
Maybe in first person. It could also switch POV. It could be a story told by someone as a memory or real time. It could also be told by an unrelated person (author)
Why do you think the story is entitled as it is?
The story may show a happy teenager trip but it will also show the traumatic experiences they will encounter when a war begins.
Where do you think the story will take place?
Australia. The author is Australian.
What time period do you think the story is set in?
Modern or maybe 2000-2010
How is the cover composed?
There is a warm sunset tone with the silhouette of 3 people with a gun aimed towards an even fainter ferris wheel. There are words (the title). The word tomorrow is larger, when the war began is under that. The shot is taken from further away there is a single piece of barbed wire through the center, maybe it shot through a barbed wire fence.
How is the lighting used?
The lighting is warm, its a sunset. But to me it gives off danger vibes. Paired with the surrounding things it makes me think maybe there is something bad that is going to happen at night.
How is text used?
The text is a main focal point in the cover with the word Tomorrow drawing the most attention. The text is the part that actually confuses me the most because it uses two different types of tense, past and present.
What symbolism is used?
The barbed wire could mean that they are trapped. The ferris wheel could also be there to show their innocence or the fun they used to have together before the war.
