Leda Rhetorical Devices

188 Words1 Page

Since Leda shows eccentric behaviors such as showering in bleach and only eating one piece of burnt toast, Leda is a robot. Leda and the story hinted that she was a robot when she was "walking across the cold tile, she stared straight ahead, avoiding the mirror, which would not have reflected a person back anyway" (1).
