How is the opening line of the book used as a metaphor?
The novel’s very first line is steeped in metaphor. One rule of thumb that rarely gets broken in the world of literature is this: when a novel opens with a metaphor, chances are that the rest of the book is also going to depend heavily on figurative language. It is not a hard and fast rule, of course.
