In this story, we look at it as a semi futuristic setting with happenings that occur only in one house. The use of the literary devices are mixed to make a social commentary that discusses the idea that technology can be both the savior and maybe a destruction of mankind, and that even if not straightly responsible for any event, all of society is to blame when things turn out badly.The usage of foreshadowing is depicted in the almost immediate fact that the women are worried about something. Starting with the fact that its relevance will make supper useless, therefore hinting that it is likely to end up with the deaths of the characters.
