English & Literature What is the extended metaphor in Identity by Polanco? Asked by MHood2 on 16 Jan 09:08 Last updated by anonymous on 19 Jan 14:28
The extended metaphor in Identity is that of a weed versus a flower. The author suggests that flowers lead a life of conformity and boundaries/rules and that weeds are free. This is compared to the chosen lifestyles and perspectives of people.
