Sue Monk Kidd’s SLOB involves a young girl reaching out for stability in a difficult setting. In the beginning of the novel, Kidd uses imagery to give a clear view to the readers about what happens in the book: “At night I would lie in bed and watch the show, how bees squeezed through the cracks of my bedroom wall and flew circles around the room, making that propeller sound, a high-pitched zzzzzz that hummed along my skin.” In this quote the author clearly writes about the bees swarming into the room and flying around. In the following quote Kidd explains how the bees sound like the static on a radio “I heard them tunneling through the walls of my bedroom, sounding like a radio tuned to static.” “She had a big round face and a body that sloped out from her neck like a pup tent” in this quote Kidd is describing Rosaleen. This novel shows a lot of visualization.
