The author's literary style could be described as both casual and lyrical, and has the first person narrative style.

Yann Martel's Life of Pi is about the story of a young boy's survival journey aboard a lifeboat over a period of months and confined along with a Bengal tiger. The writing the author used was considered to be both casual and lyrical which is hard to pull off together. The writing style basically means the way the author chooses to tell his story through word choice, sentence structure, and voice to fit into the purpose of the story, martel choose for going with uncomplicated and casual language to order to tell the story, and the word choice is straightforward and simple.

Secondly, he chose the omniscient narrator, in order the narrate the novel, the omniscient narrator knows and tells the inner thoughts of the story's characters, which is also called the first person narrative style which is different from second person narrator, where the narrator writes to a person or people, sometimes even to the reader.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

When you start to enjoy being alone, you'll quickly see that solitude means you don't have to keep apologizing for what you've done. So often, we do things that end up upsetting other people, or hurting someone else's feelings, and then have to quickly apologize for it.

Which excerpt from “The Latin Deli: An Ars Poetica” is an example of an allusion? the heady mix of smells from the open bins of
Len [333]

Answer:

Suspiros, Merengues, the stale candy of everyone’s childhood.

Explanation:

An allusion is the referencing of something without actually explicitly mentioning it. It acts as a means to bring something into the mind without directly mentioning it in detail. It could be used as a means to refer to something that the writer/author wants to bring into mind but not direct referencing.

Judith Cofer Ortiz's "The Latin Deli: An Ars Poetica" is an observation that uses vivid imagery and detailed description. It focuses on the issue of an immigrant displacement and the identity crisis, being uprooted from the 'old lie' into the new world of America. An example of an allusion is found in the mention of <em>"Suspiros, Merengues, the stale candy of everyone's childhood"</em> which is a reference to the childhood of the author or anyone displaced, for that matter. It brings back memories of their childhood.  

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
