![]() ![]() "Aba, Nakakabasa na Pala Ako?!" has a theme of school where the story is always told. ![]() After the close analysis of the figurative language used by the author, the theme was unraveled in the two novels. The researchers' findings for the usage of figurative language included the following: (1) irony- the usage of this is to make readers think about something or to emphasize a point in the story with the help of its classification namely the verbal, situational and dramatic, (2) paradox - the author used this literary device to arrest attention and provoke fresh thought to the readers, (3) metaphor - allows the readers to understand the concepts, object or character being described with the aid of analyzing its part - the tenor and vehicle, (4) simile - the author put comparisons to convey sentiments and thoughts through vivid word pictures (5) symbol - the author used it as a vital tool in convey meaning and imagery. The legs of the triangle were composed of researchers' analysis and interpretation, responses from the external readers, and selected articles and gist from the books relevant to the study. ![]() ![]() The researchers employed triangulation to cross-examine their findings. Furthermore, Norman Norwood Holland's "Five Reader's Reading" was applied for the external use of triangulation. Moreover, the study was conducted to show the relevant themes they suggested. The used of irony and paradox (contradiction), metaphor and simile (comparison) and symbol showcased the literariness of the detailed structure of the novels. The idea of literary elements such as the figurative language is used to analyze deeply the text itself. Data of the study were gathered through qualitative discussion of the two novels entitled "Aba, Nakakabasa na pala ako?!" and "Bakit baliktad magbasa ng ng libro ang mga Pilipino?" employing the theory of New Criticism. Descriptive-qualitative type of research was used since the analysis and interpretation are based on quality not to the extent of quantifying the data.
