Describe the character of the narrator in 100 words. Cite evidence from the story to support your description. The story is Sixt
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

We can describe the character of the narrator in "Sixteen" in the following manner:

The narrator, a 16-year-old girl, is smart but still a bit naive. She knows a lot of things about fashion and famous actors. She knows what she should or should not do as a girl:

<em>"Now don't get me wrong. I mean,</em><u><em> I want you to understand from the beginning that I'm not really so dumβ</em></u><em>. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn't. I get around. I read. I listen to the radio."</em>

However, her innocent heart still lets itself be deceived by a handsome and popular boy. She knows she is not dumβ, but she feels silly for waiting for the boy's call:

<em>"I can sit here now and forever and laugh and laugh while the tears run salty in the corners of my mouth. For all of a sudden, I know, </em><u><em>I know what the stars knew all the time - he will never, never call - never.</em></u><em>"</em>

  • "Sixteen" is a short story by author Maureen Daly (1921-2006).
  • The narrator is a 16-year-old who begins by explaining to readers that she is not that dumβ.
  • That is already a sign of her insecurity. We can already foresee that something happened which made her feel dumβ.
  • It turns out that, although she is indeed smart, she fell for a boy who promised to call and never did.
  • Of course, that is normal and happens to anyone. But the narrator feels silly for having believed him. It's as if she feels less smart for trusting her heart.
  • In conclusion, we can describe her as being smart but naive. The narrator is definitely not a silly girl - she is just a human being who falls in love, like everyone else.
