Read this section from The Book Thief to analyze the structure of the story and to answer the follow-up question. Which brings me to my next point.

It’s the leftover humans. The survivors.

They’re the ones I can’t stand to look at, although on many occasions I still fail. I deliberately seek out the colors to keep my mind off them, but now and then, I witness the ones who are left behind, crumbling among the jigsaw puzzle of realization, despair, and surprise. They have punctured hearts. They have beaten lungs.

Which in turn brings me to the subject I am telling you about tonight, or today, or whatever the hour and color. It’s the story of one of those perpetual survivors—an expert at being left behind.

It's just a small story really, about, among other things:
* A girl
* Some words
* An accordionist
* Some fanatical Germans
* A Jewish fist fighter
* And quite a lot of thievery

I saw the book thief three times.

How does the inclusion of a list in this part of the excerpt serve the story?

Question 20 options:

A)

It establishes a major event that sets the plot of the story into motion.

B)

It helps demonstrate the narrator’s fascination with colors.

C)

It identifies key characters and implies the setting of the story.

D)

It explains why the narrator dislikes the survivors, or the “leftover humans.”
