How does William L. Shirer use imagery in Berlin Diary; the Journal of a Foreign Correspondent, 1934-1941?

Imagery:

"It had been a long time, but they has been happy years, personally and for all people in Europe they had had meaning and borne hope until the war came and the Nazi blight and the hatred and the fraud and the political gangsterism and the murder and the massacre and the incredible intolerance and all the suffering and the starving and cold and the thud of a bomb blowing the people in a house to pieces, the thud of all the bombs blasting man's hope and decency."
