In "The Sniper" by Liam O'Flaherty, the sniper himself serves as a metaphor for the dehumanizing effects of war, illustrating how conflict can strip away one's humanity and morality. The nighttime cityscape symbolizes the darkness of war and the isolation experienced by soldiers. Additionally, the act of shooting at an unseen enemy reflects the internal struggle and the ambiguity of morality in combat, highlighting the blurred lines between friend and foe. These metaphors collectively emphasize the tragic futility and psychological toll of warfare.
