Describe how extended metaphor is used to characterize bob ewell in the novel. your answer should be at least 150 words.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee was published in 1960.

Bob Ewell is described as a bantam rooster by Scout. Bantam rooster here is a metaphor used for Bob Ewell. A metaphor is a literary device in which the thing is contemplated to be symbolic of something abstract.

Sometimes, a false boasting is displayed by the Bantams, displaying a bold nature of themselves.

For example, many of the roosters were described as having "the Napoleon complex" by a breeder and he didn't allow them to stay on the farm. Then, he observed something unusual about them and felt that two have to be sent off.

"The funniest situation was when the same aged roosters would play the respect game, only to go to roost together at the same time in the evening, even while the hens pecked around the outside pen."

The description of Bantam is in similarity with Bob Ewell. To the home of Link Deas, he too merely postures and follow Helen Robinson.  Also, Atticus didn't fear That Bob Ewell would harm his family due to his mere imitation of aggressiveness.
