Explain how Hurston uses personification in the following passage:

He almost got fat and they took great pride in him. New lies sprung up about his freemule doings... he ran Mrs. Tully off the croquet ground for having such an ugly shape...caught up with Becky Anderson...to keep his head out of the sun under her umbrella...But way after a while he died. Lum found him under the big tree on his rawbony back with all four feet in the air...He had seen Death coming and had stood his ground and fought like a natural man. He had fought it to the last breath.

Answer 17

Analyze Hurston's use of figurative language in the following passage:

Then Tea Cake came prancing around her where she was and the song of the sigh flew out of the window and lit in the top of the pine trees. Tea Cake, with the sun for a shawl. Of course he wasn't dead. He could never be dead until she herself had finished feeling and thinking. The kiss of his memory made pictures of love and light against the wall. Here was peace. She pulled in her horizon like a great fish-net. Pulled it from around the waist of the world and draped it over her shoulder. So much of life in the meshes! She called in her soul to come and see.
