Question

When Anderson Cooper reflects on his childhood with his father and his brother, this is which of the following literary devices?

Answer 1

This is an example of a literary device called a flashback. A flashback is a technique in literature where the author interrupts the present action to insert a scene from the past, often to provide context or background information. In this case, Anderson Cooper is reflecting on his childhood, which takes the reader or listener back in time to an earlier period in his life.
