Luna shows herself as a butterfly because she needs to free herself from the "cocoons" that hold her. This metaphor extends throughout the book, as it takes her to muster up the courage to open these cocoons throughout the story.

<h3>What are the cocoons that hold Luna?</h3>
  • The family.
  • The society.
  • The insecurity.
  • The fear.
  • The lack of courage.

Luna is a transgender girl who is still finalizing her transition to the female gender. This transition is what allows her to be compared to a butterfly, through metaphors that show that in addition to transition, she must break her cocoons, that is, leave behind everything that prevents her from being free.

What do the stage directions on page 340 do to help the reader understand what is going on? Why would the author have it be ‘in
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Although you have not shown which play you are referring to, we can state that the stage instructions help the reader to understand what is happening, because they show how the character behaves in relation to his personality and posture, in a given situation. Furthermore, when it is stated that the "author is in the shadows" implies that although he has a certain influence, the author is not actively participating in the scene.

Explanation:

Stage instructions are, as the name implies, instructions that the author of a play establishes to show the actors how the character should behave and move in a given situation. The purpose of these instructions is to let the actors know how the message should be conveyed to the audience through the character's movement, facial expression and behavior. These instructions also serve to help readers understand the situation in which the characters are inserted and how it affects them.

When the statement "the author is in the shadows" is provided, it implies that the author is not actually participating in a situation, although he may have some influence.
