Close reading, is a reading technique that aims to analyze various aspects of the text or select one of these aspects, always seeking a deeper understanding of the text. At first it may seem like a mere interpretation of text, but make no mistake, close reading goes further because it seeks not only to understand what is between the lines, but also the structure chosen by the author, the gradations of conflict, the narrative rhythm, the word selections, etc.

Close reading is able to help the reader:

Analyze and critique the story.

Understand the literary elements of the story.

Comprehend the surface meaning of the story.
