The novel is full of beautiful imagery, vivid descriptions, and stark honesty about the world the characters live in. In the novel's prologue, the house is the first image that comes to Triton's mind when he thinks of home. Throughout the novel, the house is personified. It lightens and darkens according to the mood of its occupants as if it, too, has feelings.
