In the context of Soapy referring to the jail as "the Island," this is an example of metaphor. A metaphor makes a comparison between two things without using "like" or "as," suggesting that one thing is another to highlight a particular quality or characteristic. In this case, the jail is being compared to an island, possibly implying isolation.

you didnt even say the answer..

I apologize for not clearly stating the answer. The correct response is Metaphor. Thank you for your patience!
