Bullet in the Brain In the story bullet in the brain Tobias Wolf uses many literary elements to paint a picture to the reader about this old man that was shot in a bank on a deeper level than him just getting shot. This story does not make the climatic point when this bitter old man is shot cold in a bank robbery but instead it takes the reader into his mind and what he thought right before he died. Him getting shot is only the halfway point in this story; it talks about many memories that he did not think about but just one that he did. He thought about a memory when times were much simpler and he was not such a bitter old man. This thought before he died provides some insight on what type of character Andres is.
