Francesca reveals herself to be an unreliable narrator when she explains her mother’s illness because she is not fully aware of what is happening. When Mia is still in bed on the second day, Francesca questions herself and what people tell her “I’m not quite sure what ‘just a bit down’ means. I’m ‘just a lot down’ and I’m getting out of bed.” (p7). This shows that Francesca does not have the right information about Mia’s illness and is telling the reader what she knows. Francesca has always viewed her mother as the strongest person in the family “…no one in my family has ever pretended that my mother doesn’t make all the decisions.” (p2) so when Mia has a breakdown and stays in her bed with serious depression, it feels to Francesca as if her whole family is falling apart, which does become true when she and

There were three types of characters in this story; Dee was the static character who remained unchanged throughout the story, Mama was the dynamic character who caused a change in others, while Maggie was the dynamic character who changed during the story. The fact that Mama knows the inner thoughts of her daughters makes her a limited omniscient narrator. She begins telling the readers that she and Maggie will wait in their comfortable clean yard for “Her” to come. By using the word her to describe the character before stating her name, Mama makes her larger than life; someone other worldly of a higher status. Mama then goes on to describe how nervous Maggie will be until her sister leaves, “standing hopelessly in corners”, “eyeing her sister with a mixture of envy and awe.” She then goes onto reminisce about a dream she had in which she and her daughter Dee, were reunited on a talk show.
