With all of his being he tried to give each of them a piece of the memory…But his father had continued to comb Lily’s long hair, and Lily, impatient, had ﬁnally wiggled under her brother’s touch. “Jonas,” she said, “you’re hurting me with your hand.”

Explanation

By himself, he (Jonas) tested his own developing memory. He watched the landscape for glimpses of the green that he knew was embedded in the shrubbery; when it came ﬂickering into his consciousness, he focused upon it, keeping it there, darkening it, holding it in his vision as long as possible until his head hurt and he let it fade away.

Man vs Himself

Effect

Explanation

The sled moved forward, and Jonas grinned with delight, looking forward to the breathtaking slide down through the invigorating air. But the runners, this time, couldn’t slice through the frozen expanse as they had on the other, snow-cushioned hill. They skittered sideways and the sled gathered speed. Jonas pulled at the rope, trying to steer, but the steepness and speed took control from his hands and he was no longer enjoying the feeling of freedom but instead, terriﬁed, was at the mercy of the wild acceleration downward over the ice.
