 Our voices can be playful, dour, cynical, or optimistic.The same thing goes for authors, and that's
where tone comes in.Tone is an author's attitude—the emotions and feelings conveyed by the work
of literature.
 But don't confuse tone with style.TONE REFERS TO ATTITUDE, while style refers to the
techniques the author uses in writing. One book can be optimistic in tone and another pessimistic,
but they could both be written in a stream-of-consciousness style. Or one book may be written in a
sparse style and another in a rich, lush style, but they both could be nostalgic in tone.
