In Charle's Dickens classic book A Tale of Two Cities there are many different motifs that throughout the book set up the intricate plot and the feelings of the characters. The motifs portray the overall mood of A Tale of Two Cities and also give the reader a sense of foreboding about the looming future of the Darnay family. Without the motifs in A Tale of Two Cities many hidden secrets, foreshadowing moods and the overall story would be lost. One main motif in A Tale of Two Cities is the echos that haunt Lucie . All through the second book she hears the echos of footsteps that run and chase into the night. The echos represent time. It shows how time is moving on toward a revolution as well as the past running to catch up with what Darnay left behind in France. The echos also represent Lucie's doubts and fears. She worries about what would happen to her family if she should died and thinks about how sad everyone would be and what she'd be leaving behind.
