In literary criticism, close reading is the careful, sustained interpretation of a brief passage of a text. A close reading emphasizes the single and the particular over the general, effected by close attention to individual words, the syntax, the order in which the sentences unfold ideas, as well as formal structures.

Which excerpt from “Good Country People” is the best example of figurative language?
sleet_krkn [62]

B. If she don’t get there before the dust settles, you can bet she’s dead, that’s all.

In writing/literature, things can be said in one of two ways—literally and figuratively. To say something literally, naturally, one means exactly what the words say. When one says something figuratively, one does not mean exactly what is written for the sake of conveying a meaning that is engaging to readers by manner of personification, hyperbole, metaphor, simile, etc. That said, when we read option “B,” we know the author does not literally mean there is dust settling or that anyone will be dead. What is meant is that when tensions subside she will be in a lot of trouble.
