One particular item that Howard had been coveting for quite some time was a mummified house cat that dated back to the year 178 B.C. The cat had belonged to a ferryman on the Nile river and, on an inscription on the linen it was wrapped in, the cat was praised for its loyalty and how well it had protected its master. A protective spell on the cat ensured that, if separated from its master, the cat would return to the river and wait for him there.

Again finding symbolism within an object she conveys the theme with the narration of the Tom Cat at the very beginning of the book and at the very end of the book. She describes how the cat would jump through the window at night and onto her chest, and “some mornings I would find my body covered with paw prints in blood; I looked as though I'd been painted with roses” (Dillard 1). When she wakes she questions where the blood came from, and acts with an innocence of the circumstances surrounding her; she looks in the mirror examining the circumstances; however, Dillard only recognizes the evils as the “mark of Cain” (Dillard 2). Conversely, at the end of the book she uses the symbol of the tom cat again except this time she looks without tunnel vision. This time when she looks in the mirror she does not see the roses the marks left but “ashes, or fiery sprouts, and I gape appalled, or full of breath;” she sees life rising from them (Dillard 270).

Ayn Rand is a talented author whose use of literary elements makes her novels all the more interesting. A significant example of this is when Rand articulates the use of the story Adam and Eve throughout the chapter by conveying explicit meanings and making connections to help the reader better understand the situation that the characters are facing as they enter into a new phase of their lives with more knowledge than they had before. Adam and Eve is a tale from the bible depicting the events that occurred the first time humans were created and the first time they sinned.

The dichotomy between religion and science is epitomised by the contrasting worlds of Ilium and San Lorenzo. Each world is the product of a separate intellectual system, with Ilium representing science and truth, while San Lorenzo represents a society based on a non-existent religion and lies. With the opening epigraph of Cat’s Cradle - ‘Nothing in this book is true’, an excerpt from the book embedded in the novel called “The Book of Bokonon” – the author breaks the tradition of representing reality in fiction. The non-existent religious text the novel often quotes, announces its own status as an artifice before the narrative starts. The opening quote is of particular significance as it is an example of burlesque, challenging the idea of truth being
