Analysis

In Clearance the author Neobie Gonzales portrays a very mysterious genre with a sense of touch of tragedy.In  the setting it was detailed to have a crowded feeling yet the feeling of darkness still lingers

it was very nice and shocking at the same time

In this line"you couldn't stick around anymore" you will start to ask what is going on, what is the reason of this occurrence in that line the mysteriousness starts.

giving answers to your doubts a clue will be presented but not really a  clue that catches your attention when the passage tells about the towns people buying ropes even though there is a epidemic.They should have been away.You might think they would use rope to tie up their luggage at their car but later on it will be revealed.

The most shocking thing in this story was when I have read this line "straining with the weight of the bodies they carried" this was the line that put the puzzle together this made this story worth reading and very dark indeed.
