She is in the same train car as Eliezer, during their deportation to Auschwitz. She was separated from her husband and two older sons, but is accompanied by a younger son.

Answer:
Your answer would be that the sentence contains an example of personification.
Explanation:
Figurative language makes use of figures of speech to be more effective. What is more, figurative language includes several literary devices and techniques: simile, metaphor, oxymoron, etc.
In the passage above, the author uses personification. Personification is a figure of speech in which an idea or thing is given human feelings or attributes. That is to say, human characteristics are attributed to nonhuman things. For instance, in this case, <em>words died</em> and <em>guilty grin</em> are examples of personification. Words cannot die because they are not human and a beard does not have the volition to be guilty. However, in both cases, <em>words </em>and <em>beard</em> have been assigned these features as if they were capable of going through them just as we humans do.
