A Tale of Two Cities

Identification of the Literary Devices:

1. Simile: "...like birds of prey..."

2. Simile: "...as shriveled and poor as ..."

Explanation:

A simile is one of the literary devices used by good writers and speech makers to compare two different things in order to spark an interesting connection in a reader's or listener's mind.   Some express a sense of confusion between similes and metaphors.

The difference is that a simile uses the words "like" or "as" to draw a comparison and a metaphor simply states the comparison without using "like" or "as".   Look at these two sentences.  Goldlyn is as innocent and immaculate as an angel.  Goldlyn is the angel in our class.

While a simile makes a direct comparison, a metaphor makes an implied comparison.  The first sentence (simile) compares Goldlyn to an angel in innocence and immaculateness.  The second sentence (metaphor) implies that Goldyn is the angel without comparison.
