Describe Scrooge in your own words? What metaphor does Dickens use to
emphasize how mean he is?
Scrooge is bitter,
a sinner, cold hearted, hard, solitary, and a powerful
businessman. A metaphor that Dickens use to emphasize how
mean Scrooge is is: "External heat and cold had little influence
on Scrooge. No warmth could warm, no wintry weather chill
him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he, no falling snow
was more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to
entreaty. Foul weather didn't know where to have him. The
heaviest rain, and snow, and hail, and sleet, could boast of the
advantage over him in only one respect. They often came
down handsomely, and Scrooge never did."
