The Boy In the striped pyjamas Week 1
When I began the novel I was enjoying how innocent the main character was but I found it strange how Bruno repeated his closest values to himself constantly. As the character develops he gains insight into the truth of why he moved to out with.the writing of the story is written in utter innocence of a 9 year old boy who narrates us through the story but can be unreliable because of his little understanding of the world.As we develop through the story more characters are revealed.One of these characters is Gretel Brunos older sister who is a hopeless case in his mind.Gretel knows more than she lets Bruno believe, we can see this when Bruno and her stare out the window at the all the people behind the wire at all the people in the striped pyjamas Gretel showed an outburst of emotion and ran into her room.This leads us to believe that she knows what awful things are going on in out with.
