2. The image that spans from pg. 187 to 189 of the interview with the mother of a Hiroshima victim can be viewed as a powerful metaphor and example of the love from a parent Oskar covets so much. Perhaps this is the only way Oskar knows how to show his feelings about the topic, so he presents the interview to his class in this much more subtle fashion.
A metaphor is a comparision or analytic measure between two objects or concepts used to give a specific trait, characterize, personify, or distinguish a particular point or create a specific idea. Generally, the more vivid the metaphor, the more distinct and strong it is, although a simple metaphor can be just as effective in getting the point across.
