This research focuses on analyzing speech and thought presentation in the story by means of stylistic approach proposed by Leech and Short (2007). There are two main objectives in this research: (1) to find out speech and thought presentation techniques used in the story and (2) to figure out how those techniques reveal the characterization of the story. Three types of speech presentation were found in the analysis: Free Direct Speech (FDS) in 56%, Direct Speech (DS) in 41%, and Indirect Speech (IS) in 3%. Indirect Thought (IT) is the only thought presentation found in the data, presented in 15 utterances. The FDS technique suggests that the context of speech in the story is clear enough, referring to who the speakers are. That is, why the readers are involved in the story. By employing IT in the whole thought presentation, Lahiri involves herself in the character's consciousness.

Style Stylistics is the study of language in the service of literary ends, and in Style in Fiction Geoffrey Leech and Mick Short demonstrate how stylistic analysis can be applied to novels and stories. Writing for both students of English language and English literature, they show the practical ways in which linguistic analysis and literary appreciation can be combined, and illuminated, through the study of literary style. Drawing mainly on major works of fiction of the last 150 years, their practical and insightful examination of style through texts and extracts leads to a deeper understanding of how prose writers achieve their effects through language.

This is the second volume of Anar's short stories published by Azerbaijan International (AZER.com). The first volume is Dante's Jubilee & Other Stories by ANAR. Here ANAR experiments with surrealism. The settings and situations can be real -- yet at the same time unreal — which leaves the main characters disoriented and unsettled as they desperately try to make sense and find their way in uncharted territory. The title story "Hotel Room" is a "must-read" for anyone wanting to delve into contemporary Azerbaijani literature and to understand the emotional ties that bind Azerbaijanis to the Nagorno Karabakh region in the Caucasus. Editor: Betty Blair. ISBN: 978-0-985280-5-3 (hard cover), ISBN 978-0-985279-9-5 (paperback), ISBN: 978-0-985280-4-6 (PDF). 249 pages. Copyright: Azerbaijan International magazine, 2017
