Saul Bellow used the metaphor of “an invasion” to describe interviews. In chapter 7, The Interview, from the Class 12 English textbook, Bellow expresses his view that interviews feel intrusive and akin to a violation of one’s personal space. He likens the process to an aggressive act, suggesting that the interviewer seeks to pry into the depths of the subject’s thoughts and emotions without regard for their privacy. This metaphor underscores the discomfort many individuals feel about being subjected to interviews, highlighting the tension between public exposure and personal boundaries.
