Answer:
The city is described as a graveyard to draw a parallel between the city in which Mead lives in and the environment of a graveyard.
Explanation:
"The Pedestrian" is a short story written by Ray Bradbury. The story centers around the life of Leonard Mead.
The walk that Mead takes in the night in the city is referred to as walking in a graveyard. <u>The city in which Mead lives every individual life in seclusion, in their houses watching TV. During the night, when Mead walks back home from work, there can not be seen any sign of life on the streets. The streets are filled with mist and frosty air, just like that in the graveyards</u>.
So, in this way the city is compared with a graveyard in the story.
The adjective that supports the author's explicit message about his inspiration for Merlin's voice is mysterious.
The author says that his inspiration came out of nowhere, during the late night (pre-dawn hours), from an owl's hoot. All of these seem very mysterious to me.
Young, new, and whole are not the adjectives to describe the author's inspiration, but rather Merlin's voice, which is not the same.
Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
