3. Short-response prompt (15 points) Read the following excerpt from Grendel. I understood that the world was nothing: a mechani

cal chaos of casual, brute enmity on which we stupidly impose our hopes and fears. I understood that, finally and absolutely, I alone exist. All the rest, I saw, is merely what pushes me, or what I push against, blindly—as blindly as all that is not myself pushes back. I create the whole universe, blink by blink.—An ugly god pitifully dying in a tree! Select one example of figurative language that the author uses in this excerpt. Identify the type of figurative language used, and then explain what the figurative language means and analyze what it tells the reader about the story’s narrator. Be sure to use specific details from the excerpt to support your ideas

This is a metaphor: ‘.... the world was nothing: a mechanical chaos of casual, brute enmity on which we stupidly impose our hopes and fears.’  It tells the readers that the narrator believes that the world is cruel and ugly, and that life is meaningless and hopeless.
