Read this sentence from Chapter 17 and answer the question.
Okonkwo was popularly called the "Roaring Flame." As he looked into the log fire he recalled the name. He
was a flaming fire. How then could he have begotten a son like Nwoye, degenerate and effeminate?... He
sighed heavily, and as if in sympathy the smoldering log also sighed. And immediately Okonkwo's eyes were
opened and he saw the whole matter clearly. Living fire begets cold, impotent ash. He sighed again, deeply.
What is the author's main purpose in using figurative language in this excerpt?
to imply Okonkwo's thoughts indirectly
to explain a folktale
to avoid going into a long explanation about the father-son dynamics of Okonkwo and Nwoye
to entertain by using symbols and metaphors
