In 'Kidnapped', the main character's journey through various challenges and his attempts to find his rightful place and uncover the truth about his situation could be seen as a form of 'crossword quest'. He has to piece together different pieces of information, from the people he meets and the situations he encounters, to reach his goals.
As mentioned before, 'Treasure Island' could be considered to have such an element. The search for the buried treasure involves following a map which is like a set of clues, similar to a crossword puzzle.
I'm not entirely sure which specific Stevenson novel this refers to directly. However, generally speaking, it could be a symbolic representation of a character's journey. Maybe it's a journey where the character has to find the right 'words' or solutions to progress. It could also be related to a theme of self - discovery, where the character has to fill in the 'blanks' of their own identity, much like filling in the blanks in a crossword.
I'm not aware of any novel that specifically combines these elements in a direct way. Sheryl Sandberg's work and influence haven't been typically associated with novels having crossword - like features in a mainstream sense.
Another one is 'Carrie'. This novel tells the story of a girl with telekinetic powers who is bullied at school and then takes revenge in a very disturbing way. There are a lot of psychological and horror elements in it. For example, the prom scene is both iconic and terrifying.
Perhaps it's suspenseful. His novels often keep readers on the edge of their seats. So, the crossword clue might be designed in a way that creates a sense of anticipation and tension, for example, it could be a phrase that implies something is about to happen but not quite clear what it is.
Sure. 'Treasure Island' is a must - read. It's all about the hunt for pirate treasure and has great characters like Long John Silver.
As far as I know, none of his popular novels like 'Shutter Island' have any known 'crossword' references.
It could be a common theme or setting. Maybe a specific author's name or a genre.
The fruit-named narrator could be a unique twist that makes the crossword stand out. It might be used to connect different elements or as a playful distraction to challenge solvers' thinking.
😋I recommend the following novels to you, I believe you will like them: " The Road to Raising a Snake " was a light novel written by the author, Male and Female Bunnies. It was a funny and sarcastic novel. The protagonist Xuan Chu was reincarnated in a snake egg and became a white snake. Together with Huang Xue, the girl who raised snakes, they had daily entertainment and saved the world. " Forced to Hide My Marriage with a Big Boss " was a modern romance novel written by the author, Angel Yu. The funny theme was about a love story between a rookie assistant and a black-bellied tycoon. " Pure Love Demon King Playing Rogue: Wolf Girl Rampage "-An ancient romance novel written by the author, Yiyi. The hilarious story between the black-bellied father and son and the female protagonist was one of the characteristics of the novel. I hope you like my recommendation.😗
Hey, I recommend the novel "My Otherworld College" to you. It's also a fantasy novel with a college! The protagonist of this novel, Fang Nan, needed to run the empty college left behind by his father to survive, and he also had to fight against mysterious creatures in various entertainment worlds (movies, anime, novels, games). The plot of this novel was full of ups and downs. It was more novel and cross-border than the academy novels like Douluo. Not only was it interesting, but it also had some elements of fantasy and oriental fantasy! I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
