metaphorical that means that it might have

Narrative Technique
The language used in the short story is not
easily understandable because some words are not
used any longer and also because the novelist
describes the scenes with abundant details which
deviate the reader's attention from the main
events occurring in the novel.
Narrator\Narrators
The narrator was omniscient (he knows more things
than the characters or the readers). It makes us
understand that the narrator filtred everything.
The readers opinion depends on the narrator
Effects
The writer uses repetitions and metaphors.For
example the writer uses surnames for the two
girls for the first name to stress the peculiar
characteristics of both girls. March reminds the
reader on relevant month that, in turn, reminds
on spring. Banford reminds on a verb "to ban"
that means putting something or someone aside.
