idk im not good at english

I studied 'Lord of the Flies' for GCSE English Lit, and we analysed this quotation. I'd say it's a metaphor because Ralph and Jack are being described as being 'continents' without any comparative words such as 'like' or 'as' (which would make it a simile).

I also think it might be a hyperbole
