The details from the story, “Gold in the Sky,” by Alan E. Nourse, that help create the character of Greg Hunter are: his fear, his anticipation, and his comparisons of himself and his brother. In the passage, it is stated that Greg knew he was afraid but that no one else did. From this statement we can see that either Greg doesn’t share his emotions or that he puts on a facade of bravery. Also in the passage it is said that Greg wouldn’t trade places with anyone else in that moment despite his fear, that this depended on him, and later on, it also states that he felt anticipation. This shows that Greg is able to put feelings of fear aside for something he enjoys and that he enjoys the feeling of being counted on. In the story it also says that Greg thought of how his brother wouldn’t be able to do what he is doing. This declaration shows that Greg thinks highly of himself. Overall, we can see that Greg Hunter is someone who thinks highly of himself and wants others to as well.
