Similes are literary devices that compares words with another directly, a bit different from a metaphor (Metaphors compare things indirectly related).

<h3>Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character</h3>

Correct option is B

The simile used to develop Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character through "The image reinforces the idea that Mrs. Crater and Lucynell are both damaged."

  • The "ugly words" of Mrs. Lucynell was that Shiflet was "a poor disabled friendless drifting man", but she also considers him capable enough to be her daughter's husband.
  • This way of addressing him by the woman who expects him to marry her daughter shows that the world or society he lives in doesn't have much care about others, everyone for themselves.
