Answer:

The book: Wealthy teen nearly experiences consequences uses humor and satire by analyzing the case of Charles Wentworth, a boy who killed four people in a drunken haze, and by using diction to emphasize criticism in our society.

Explanation:

This book is the analysis of a case in which a teenager with a position of wealth and influence executes a series of murders and employs stylistic devices to develop the criticism of our society. Making a hypothetical and rhetorical point of view that helps the reader the point of view of the writer. An example is when the author starts to contrast the privileged position the analyzed character had and his acts.
