In this short story of Lamb to the Slaughter, includes a person vs person and internal conflict. Firstly the text “Went forward to kiss him” give us an impression of how much Mary Maloney loves her husband. Another quote I found impactful was “He did an unusual thing.” with this quote tells the readers that the situation currently happening is unusual and helps the story to slowly start approaching to the climax. Equally important, the quote, “I’ve got something to tell you.”,  is also extremely impactful as it serves to incite the person vs person conflict and builds up to the climax.  In addition, the text “So I’ve killed him.” also displays person vs person conflict since Mary Maloney has killed her husband as the story reaches the climax. Also, the quote, “Keep things absolutely natural” is really important, because it helps the story to continue to intensify and it also shows Mary Maloney’s internal conflict since she needs to control her emotions by convincing herself that she is innocent. Lastly, the quote “Mary Maloney began to giggle.” is the perfect conclusion because the evidence of the weapon has been eaten and Mary Maloney can’t be arrested. My background is made up of dark colors because the story is a murder mystery and to let the reader to get a sense of what kind of story this is. The picture I used helps the reader understand the story and matches the dark background vibes.
