What are some literary techniques used in story endings?

Some common literary techniques in story endings include cliffhangers, resolutions, and circular endings. Would you like examples?

Yes, please provide examples of each technique.

Sure! A cliffhanger leaves the story unresolved, like in 'The Hunger Games.' A resolution ties up loose ends, as seen in 'Pride and Prejudice.' A circular ending returns to the beginning, like in 'The Alchemist.'

Interesting! How do these techniques affect the reader's experience?

They can create suspense, provide closure, or evoke reflection, enhancing emotional engagement and satisfaction.
