Answer:
Hyperbole
Explanation:
A hyperbole is an intentional exaggeration or adding emphasis to an action. It is used to make a point bigger or better than it actually is and makes it more dramatic.
In this scenario the statement - 'I was on Today (a morning TV show) accused of killing the novel . . .'
Conveys that the writer was criticised for doing a bad job with the novel.
Using the word killing adds emphasis to the how bad the work on the novel was.
In this instance the writer does not mean he actually killed the book, but he said it to give a picture of the extent to which the book was negatively impacted by Jame's action.
Antithesis is the figure of speech that allows the exposition of two opposing ideas in the same sentence.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The antithesis allows two opposing ideas to be presented together in a harmonious way.
- This allows for an extension of a concept, or even to show confusion and uncertainty.
As with all figures of speech, antithesis is used to make texts deeper and more meaningful. Through figurative language.
An example of antithesis can be seen in the sentence:
"Living and dying are the most natural things in the world."
You have not shown the text this question refers to. This prevents me from providing a specific answer, but I hope the information above can help you.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the answer is, "They see Dr. Mengele deciding who will live and who will die."
