Examples of Imagery:

And then on November 10 1965, the light of my life was born. I looked down at Nicholas and decided that maybe there was a God after all. I wondered how something so pure could come into such a cruel, imperfect world. Nicholas gazed back at me with the eyes of a very old soul indeed. He had the answers, but he wasn't telling" (pg. 56.)

"As he moved his hands in stroboscopic flutters, they multiplied and fanned out, overlapping each other. The formality was incredible. He had become Shiva. I hadn't realizezd until then that I was living with somebody who at odd moments could turn into a god" (pg. 91.)
