How do the contrasting words and foreshadowing

support the theme "people cannot escape reality
through romantic fantasy"?
O Farquhar's view of slowed time is a romantic
fantasy. He cannot escape the reality of time.
O Farquhar's death is a heroic romantic
fantasy. Fortunately, time is on his side.
Farquhar's captors control time. Only through
slowing timesan Farquhar realistically
escape.

Answer:

- False predictions develop the romantic escape story.

- A surprise ending returns readers to reality.

- Motifs such as the noose and time support the theme.

- The structure follows a realistic hanging, a false romantic escape, and a realistic death.

- Foreshadowing shows that the reality of death is part of the romantic story.
