Evidence for Abortion<br />
"<strong>Hills</strong> like white <strong>Elephants</strong>"<br />
Pregnant stomach is like an unwanted gift that<br />
someone pretends to like or want. The simile is<br />
used several times (para. 2,10, 11) These<br />
metaphors also allude to barrenness, "the country<br />
was brown and dry" as opposed to Jig's fertility.<br />
Now, she wonders if she'll ever have this chance<br />
again. "And once you take it away, you never get it<br />
back" (3).<br />
"It's an awfully simple operation, jig"<br />
He's trying to simplify the abortion both for<br />
himself and her.<br />
