The Neuromancer Style

Neuromancer is written in a gritty style, filled with slang some very serious characters. The dialogue between characters is written in short sentences, usually just a few words long, and feels like a more realistic way of speaking. Since most of the characters in Neuromancer are street-type people, it is fitting that the way their dialogue is written is short and to-the-point. A lot of descriptive words used in Neuromancer tend to lean more towards a dirty and uncomfortable feel, and give the world a feeling of always being on edge with little safety. Also, the choice for characters to use profanity even further lends to their outlaw personalities and characteristics. Dialogue in Necromancer is shown to have a more street dialect and tone throughout the story, between the characters. This style of wording certainly fits the setting of the story, considering it takes place in a cyberpunk society, that is mainly viewed as an inner city type of environment. There is quite a bit of drug use instilled in the characters' lives, drug users develop a form of slang to use around each other, so this story most definitely provided the proper fitting word format for the characters.
