In pages 48-57 it shows the struggles Amelie goes through when given the accounting job. It took her days to do the job that Fubuki could do in "3 minutes and 50 seconds." It caused her so much stress she went crazy and one night got completely naked and hugged Fubuki 's computer for warmth.

She wanted to have a sense of being free after being in the office for so long. Another symbol in Fear and Trembling is the view on pages 1-2. Right as she walked into the Yumimoto Corporation she was infatuated with the view and could not lay her eyes off of it. This tells the reader that someone can forget about what 's happening in their life by appreciating nature 's
