Long Answer

The story is told from a first-person narration perspective; however, the narrator does not give much information about himself, other than he is a Blackfoot boy. Based on the narration, we understand that the narrator is a young boy, who is not so much concerned with the political and cultural ramifications of his mother’s actions; rather, he is more interested in visiting his sister and trying his favorite foods. In this vein, the narration adds a quality of innocence to the gravity of the plot. (Various pages)
