Character Portrayal: “Then I felt the worst shame of my life: I was pierced with hunger.” (page 9) “I learned to tolerate images rising in me like bruises.” (page 19) “It was the first time I’d seen people eating alone in public – a sight that disturbed me and would take me some time to get use to.” (page 91) “We’re holding each other but then she want to know why I like with Athos, why I’ve collected all those articles about the war that are in piles on the carpet, why I stay up half the nigh examining every face in the photographs. Why I keep to myself, why I don’t know how to dance.” (page 110) “I still wasn’t writing much poetry, but I did write some very short stories. They were always in one sense or another, about hiding: and they only came to me when I was half asleep.” (page 134) Setting and Tone Development: “I squirmed from the marshy ground like Tollund Man, Gauballe Man, like the boy they uprooted in the middle of Franz Josef Street while they were repairing the road, six hundred cockleshells bead around his neck, a helmet of mud.
