Read the following excerpt from Barbara Kingsolver’s "Life Without Go-Go Boots" and answer the question. I have a feeling the day might come when my daughter will beg to be a slave of conventional fashion. I’m inclined to resist, if it happens. To press on her the larger truths I finally absorbed from my own wise parents: that she can find her own path. That she will be more valued for inward individuality than outward conformity. … But a small corner of my heart still harbors the Bride of Frankenstein, eleven years of age, haunting me in her brogues and petticoats. Always and forever, the ghosts of past anguish compel us to live through our children. If my daughter ever asks for the nineties equivalent of go-go boots, I’ll cave in.

In about 75 words, identify and discuss the figurative language used in the above excerpt.
