2.

There is no overlap between the friends David has in his stories and the friends Dee has in his stories. Why might this be the case? How does this narrative move help characterize David/Dee?

3.

Food appears in nearly all these stories—Frick is associated with pork rinds and fiddleheads, David’s mother with corn fritters and moose meat. Choose one story that prominently features a food item and discuss the narrative role of that item.
