Literary notes about biscuit (AI summary)
In rare instances, authors have employed “biscuit” as a descriptive color rather than merely a food item. One striking example appears in [1], where a character’s withered, dry ears are compared to “thin biscuit”—a simile that conjures an image of a muted, light, and somewhat parched tone reminiscent of a well-baked, earthy biscuit. This usage subtly transforms a common culinary term into a vivid color descriptor, lending the description both a tactile quality and an understated warmth evocative of humble, everyday grace.
