Imagery- 2 Consider: And now nothing but drums, a battery of drums, the conga drums jamming out, in a descarga, and the drummers lifting their heads and shaking under some kind of spell. There’s rain drums, like pitter-patter pitter-patter but a hundred times faster, and then slamming-the-door drums and dropping-the-bucket drums, kicking-the-car-fender drums. Then circus drums, the cocunuts-falling-out-of-the-trees-and-thumping-against-the-ground drums, the lion-skin drums, then wacking-of-a-hand-against-a-wall-drums, the beating-of-a-pillow-drums, heavy-stones-against-a-wall drums, then the-thickest-forest-tree-trunks-pounding drums, and then the-mountain-rumble drums, then the-little-birds-learning-to-fly-drums and the-big-birds-alighting-on-a-rooftop-and-fanning-their-immense-wings drums… Oscar Hijuelos, The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love Analysis: Read the passage aloud. How does Hijuelos create the auditory imagery of drumming? How do the words imitate the sounds they represent? Hijuelos repeats the word then eight times in this passage. What does the repetition contribute to the auditory image of drumming?

Imagery- 2 Consider: Hijuelos creates the auditory image of drumming first by the sound and rhythm of the words themselves. The strong consonant sounds and the hyphenation give the passage a fast-paced, drum-like sound. In addition, each separate, auditory image evokes a specific, concrete sound. From the sharp crash of the slamming-the-door drums to the flutter of the little-the-birds-learning-to-fly drums, Hijuelos constucts his images with the exact detail needed to re-create the sounds. The repetition of the word then acts as another rhythm instrument, holding the drums in counterpoint. It reinforces the auditory image of drumming.
