A TRIUMPH OF SURGERY
Explanation:
The figure of speech used in the chapter “A TRIUMPH OF SURGERY”, is irony.
Mrs., Pumphrey was one of those kindest beings on earth who loved dogs and treated it as her own child. And she always overfed Tricki as a token of her endless love and devotion, failing to know that it just ended up making Tricki accumulate plenty of excess weight and turning him into a bloated sausage. Once he became ill and the doctor was called,Mr.Harriot who was a vet. He took tricki to hospital and gave him just water and managed to mix Tricki with other bunch of dogs to play with them,it acted as an exercise for him.
Once she was called to the hospital by the doctor, Mrs. Pumphrey, and when she saw Tricki all cheerful and healthy, she thought it was a victory of surgery.
Although it was the triumph of Doctor’s goodwill,his love for dogs, his presence of mind and his dedication towards everything.
