The two unlike elements being compared in the story are;

  • the Cyclops and the mast of a ship

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using like or as. In this excerpt, we learn that Cyclops fed himself so much that he became overfilled and lay down like a mast. So the direct comparison being made is between Cyclops and the mast of a ship.

A mast is a vertical structure found at the center of a ship. So, Cyclops fell straight down after he was overwhelmed with food.

Summarily, the comparison being made is between Cyclops and the mast of a ship.

Which of these best describes Sorrentino’s use of authorial reticence in “There’s a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head w
svp [43]
To be reticent is to not reveal one's thoughts readily. In this case, it is the reticence of the author. The author does not reveal their thoughts readily. If the narrator or author refuses to do something, it is made known that he is doing something. The something here is him refusing. If he acts as if the situation is normal, I'd assume he is acting in such a way that would be nonreactionary of the actions from the provoker. I would safely choose the last option as sorrentino's exercising of authorial reticence.
