ABSTRACT The stylistic analysis of speech and thought presentation examines the various ways in which novelists can portray the speech of their characters, how to recognize and characterize these different kinds of speech and thought presentation, and the impacts connected with these forms. In this study, we will focus on how character speech is given in the two selected short stories written by Margaret Atwood with regard to speech presentation can also be utilized to portray character ideas. This study analyses the speech and thought presentation in Margaret Atwood’s two selected short stories, The Headless Horseman and Moral Disorder. The study aims to examine how speeches and thoughts are presented in the selected stories and to see how frequently the categories of speech and thought categories have been used. Finally, the analyses of the short stories will be compared to each other and find out which categories have been used more frequently in the stories.
