Answer: C. Alex Tizon, the author of Small Man in a Big Country excerpted from "Big Little Man," states, “It's one of the beautiful lies of the American Dream: that you can become anything, do anything, accomplish anything if you want it badly enough and are willing to work for it. Limits are inventions of the timid mind” (Tizon 5).

two examples of extended metaphor’s in the writing life by Annie Dillard? explain how they work to help understand her writing
Len [333]

Answer:

Two examples of metaphor extended in the book mentioned in the question above can be seen in the paragraphs:

  • "I do not so much write a book as sit up with it, as with a dying friend. During visiting hours, I enter its room with dread and sympathy for its many disorders. I hold its hand and hope it will get better. "
  • "People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subject inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all. "

Explanation:

The metaphor is presented as a comparison of a subjective nature between two things that do not look alike, but that have related elements. The metaphor is made in a single sentence, but the extended metaphor, as the name already says, is the same subjunctive comparison that extends over many sentences within a paragraph and even many paragraphs.

In "The writing life" by Annie Dillard we can see two examples of metaphor extended in the following paragraphs:

  • "I do not so much write a book as sit up with it, as with a dying friend. During visiting hours, I enter its room with dread and sympathy for its many disorders. I hold its hand and hope it will get better. "
  • "People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subject inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all. "
