EL&IC Section 2

In section 2, the story switches narrators constantly, but Foer leaves little clues to tell you whose story is being followed at that time. When Oskar is the narrator, Foer will leave a clue to this. I noticed that when Oskar is talking, he will mention heavy boots very quickly. When his grandmother is the narrator, she would say that something is "one hundred dollars." Foer leaves these little clues as a way to show you who the narrator is without telling you outright.
