Abstract

The Iceberg theory is a narrative technique devised by the writers in which the writers reveal the deeper thoughts with economy by choosing less verbal expressions and leaving the deeper thoughts associated with it in a submerged state for the readers to identify and comprehend it on their own. This is a style juxtaposed to the act of visualizing an iceberg with just its tip revealed wherein the deeper portion lies submerged. The writing strategy is also known as the Theory of Emission which was devised by Hemmingway in which the stronger part of his story was hidden just like the iceberg underneath the ocean and this accounts for creating a perfect story as too much of detail strips away the   powerful presentation of story's honest idea.
