Hi i am currently writing a essay for Maestro and am using this quote...“The brilliant furnace of the rising sun; the huge clouds that ruddered the sky. In every direction the rain could be seen falling: vast, distant cubes of water dripping slowly, ponderously out of the sky.” Pg 10 BUT i am having difficulties of distinguishing what kind of langugae technique is used here?
Help would be much appreciated!
metaphor. Vast distant cubes, that is a metaphor, because he is saying that water is in the form of cubes, which they aren't they just <i> seem</i> that way,
Most of the techniques in maestro are metaphors and similes and descriptive language.
