“Give a man or woman back his self-respect, and in most cases-not all, but most-you also give back that person's ability to think with at least some clarity.” ― Stephen King, quote from Under the Dome
Junior Rennie has not realized that the Dome has come down; he has been too busy with murder. It is only the sound of the whistle that signifies something has gone wrong. The fact that something has, indeed, gone terribly wrong is indicated in the simile.
As the stakes rise, tensions escalate and the underbelly of Chester's Mill becomes a battleground for survival, morality, and self-discovery. Beyond the enthralling plotline, "Under the Dome" is also a searing commentary on human nature, politics, and the consequences of unchecked power.
