There are no human characters in this story
Since there are no living characters in this story, the setting of the automated house also functions as a character through an extended
form of personification- when something nonhuman is given human characteristics.
For example:
In the living room the voice-clock sang, Tick-tock, seven o’clock, time to
get up, time to get up, seven o’clock! as if it were afraid nobody would.
The verb sang is usually reserved for humans, not machines. Also, the idea that the house itself has emotions such as fear launches the personification that will be extended and deepened throughout the story.
