The reason that I think it is a framework story is the fact that the outside framwork or the begining of the story set a mood of the main character, Daisy. We find out right from the beginning that she isn't the smartest girl, but, is great around people. We see this throughout the inner framework in the middle of the story because when she is with her cousin in the woods, she gets along with her very well and treats her like a sister, but, her cousin is the one who finds food.
I agree with you that this is a framework story. By informing the reader of the type of person Daisy is in the beginning, is like showing the frame, and the story showing how Daisy is naive but very friendly is explained in great detail through Daisy's eyes (the picture).
ReplyDeleteWe also find that she changes throughout the story. I am not sure if how a character changes throughout a story is related to a framework story at all or not; that is why I was hesitant to put How I Live Now as an example. I do know that she narrates the story in a similar fashion to that of the book, The Catcher in the Rye, thats what reminded me of it in the first place!!
