I think the attack was very out of the blue so not heightening or weakening the narrative.The attack however may have been calculated by Mr Ewell as if he wanted to hurt Atticus, the best way to do so was by attacking his children rather than attacking Atticus himself. I don't think the attack was that unexpected, as Atticus knew that Bob Ewell was angry after the court trial and wanted to seek revenge on the Finch family. The fact that Scout and Jem were walking home in the dark without Atticus or Aunt Alexandra suggested that something ominous was about to happen. |

I don't think it heightens the impact of the scene as it is unexpected place and time and there wasn't a build up to a cartain scene Too right, the scene is definitely not heightened by the setting, nor is it expected for Bob to attack the children. |
