What metaphor is used to describe Miss Emily in the first paragraph ? Explain please

Sagot :

In the opening of the story, Miss Emily is referred to as "a fallen monument." As a metaphor, this fits her in several ways. She has died or "fallen." She has been a part of the town for so long that she is viewed as an enduring monument of sorts, rather than a human being.
