Sonny's Blues (BookRags) What are the literary terms in Sonny's Blues? Asked by bookragstutor on 28 Nov 08:47 Last updated by anonymous on 23 Feb 19:39
The use of allusions shows up as a literary element in Sonny's Blues: "The cup of trembling" (239). There are also references to pop culture icons from the blues/jazz age (Armstrong, Parker) as well as songs from that time period.
