    The author uses Corinne’s thoughts to support the message. An example of this can be found on page 2 where Corinne thought “but her new eyes will not be brown, and they will not shine with her laughter”. Corinne believed that the grey mechanical eyes simply couldn’t compare to her friend Grusha’s real eyes that “hold you when you look into them”. Another example is the use of personifications in the story. Corrine described Grusha’s eyes as eyes that danced, flashed and shined; just as how she would describe living, breathing people. This emphasizes how the eyes contribute to the individuality and beauty of a person, and the fact that nothing can replace them.…

Bryce stated that “he guess that he wasn’t feeling much of anything” due to the circumstances. Lastly, I would think that Bryce stating that didn’t know how his wife and kids were and that he thought I they might leave me. They ran through their savings and were behind on the mortgage. Bryce also stated that he was going to lose everything and that he felt bad, but I couldn’t do anything about it.…
