Many people may have such an experience, when they read books when they were young, they liked to read plots, paid little attention to language, and often felt cumbersome and useless for some preparations and descriptions.
When I grew up, I began to pay attention to language, and I learned that the so-called literary talent was not only in the plot, but also in the use of words, sentences, and even the use of personal names and punctuation. And one of the most wonderful of all the gifts of words is the elven metaphors. There are some figurative sentences that you will know as soon as you read them: they were written by a person who was favored by words.
A person who can write a good figurative sentence,
There must be everything in the world in the heart,
Take two unrelated objects,
It's in it that creates inextricable connections.
