Style
There There
by Tommy Orange

There There: Style 1 key example

Part II: Orvil Red Feather (1)
Explanation and Analysis:

Perhaps the most identifiable feature of There There is that Orange changes his style between each story. This makes each chapter distinct and allows Orange to tell about a great number of different characters without blending those characters together. He writes sometimes in the past tense (Tony Loneman) and sometimes in the present tense (Dene Oxendene). He writes in the first person (Opal Viola Victoria Red Feather, Calvin Johnson, etc.), second person (Thomas Frank), and third person (Bill Davis, Orvill Red Feather, etc.).
