Immersion Novel

The author introduces the character in multiple different ways that work very well. For instance, some information on the main character is given through how the Nazis treat him. The character is made to seem more weak by having the Nazi's descriptions of him included in the dialogue. The author does not use much physical description of the narrator because it is in the first person. The physical description also isn't really a key part in this kind of story. There are many descriptions of the other characters however. The description is mostly used to show the decrepit conditions that the other people are in. This kind of physical description isn't used until the very last paragraph of the book. The only character that can be noticed to be prominent in the early parts of the book other than the narrator is the narrators father, and this is mostly because he is the only character that isn't killed off within a few seconds of meeting them.
