The title contains a grammatical mistake.

The abstract was not written clearly. It is very short and the writer should explain more about the importance of the research and its methodology. The major findings are not significant and systematic.

Concerning the introduction, there are many missing elements. For example, there is no enough background knowledge and past studies have been neglected. The importance of the study is missing too. There should be an explanation of the knowledge gap to start a logical progression. Moreover, research aims were not stated clearly.

The methodology of the paper is unsound, there were no methods presented in the study, nor a special section has been specified by the writer. So I cannot measure whether the methods of the study are valid or reliable.

Furthermore, figures of speech are presented but with no background information about their significance. Some of the are mentioned vaguely. For example, Alliteration 1) “Treacherous daughters did not deserve to be mothers and this was just punishment.” (Hosseini, 2009: 93). The alliteration in this passage is relevant because it reinforces the fact that Mariam is very upset and plagued with guilt and grief that she is unable to deal with. The alliteration is written in such a way that Mariam’s thoughts are expressed blatantly and without emotion. The way in which this is stated almost has a snide perception, as this is very fitting to Mariam’s self-doubt and lack of confidence that is later intensified throughout the novel. The writer did not illustrate where is exactly the alliteration is?

Finally, the discussion and conclusion part has not been presented or written in a systematic way, thus research question are left without logical answers and this is methodologically unsound.
