The author uses the setting, narrator, and characters to emphasize figures of speech and figurative language that establish the meaning and tone of the story.

<h3>Why does the author do this?</h3>
  • Because figurative language allows the presentation of a deeper meaning.
  • Because the use of figurative language emphasizes less literal and more sentimental concepts.
  • Because the use of figures of speech allows for more diversified use of words.

"The refusal," tells the story of a small town that accepts whatever the state capital offers, even if it is meaningless or harmful to the small town.

The story tells presents a strong social critique about the lack of critical thinking and ability to make their own decisions many individuals have.

However, the author wanted to disseminate this criticism in a deep, subjunctive way, with great use of words and in a less literal way, but capable of adapting to the relationship of each reader.

For this reason, he makes strong use of figurative language, where he uses figures of speech such as metaphors to establish the characters and setting in a way that furthers the meanings of the plot.

Can you compare and contrast the book and movie of The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler?
Ksivusya [100]

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler takes the form of a letter from Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler to her lawyer, Saxonberg. And what a letter it is.

Twelve-year-old Claudia Kinkaid decides to run away from home with the help of her little brother, Jamie (who is just nine years old). With Jamie's money and Claudia's smarts, they bust out of that suburban joint and run to somewhere that any kid would love. Disneyland? The rainforest? Sweden? Nope—they end up at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Less kid-friendly, but more filled with pretty, elegant things.
