Identifying the Main Character in The Use of Force :: Personal Narrative

Identifying the Main Character in The Use of pull outSince Olson narrates the story, I was tempted to focus on his opinions and motives in accessing and handling the intense slur of diagnosing a sick child. Though tempted to focus on Olson, by and by meticulous analysis of the passage, I noted Matilda as the character that pierce is being applied to-clearly a manifestation of the title of this story.All aid and focus is on Matilda employing care to her appearance as well as her fluster. Matilda just would not allow Olson to take cultures from the back of her pharynx. Olsons coarse remarks to Matildas nave parents for heavens sake...she might have diphtheria and possibly pass out from it, doesnt affect the child in the least. Nothing changes. Diphtheria is an infectious disease in which a membrane forms over the air passage. Olson orders one parent, whom he subconsciously had not disclosed, to place the child on his lap and submit her wrist. Matilda shrieked terrifyingly, des perately, Stop it Youre killing meMatildas m other is even so more nave than her father because obviously Olson told the child she would die of a sore throat to startle her and prompt gravity to the urgency of getting the cultures. Yet, Matildas mother still questioned the doctor contemptibly till her economize had to suggest that she take leave of absence from the room, inferring that diphtheria is deadly. Olsons ego is ruffled, for he states that he could have torn the child apart in his stimulate fury and enjoyed it. It was a pleasure to attack her.Force is implied from the statements Then the appointment begins and Oh yeah in Olsons objection to the alternative to go to the hospital. This is embody by the descriptions abject, crushed, exhausted, magnificent heights of insane fury, and terror for the doctor. The doctor wrestles with Matilda and her parents. intelligence officer determination in the final unreasoning assault, to overpower her neck and jaws to interject the tongue depressor, succeeded.Focus shifted from each character back to the child. Olsen speaks about the other characters at length, at all times referring their effect or concerns on the child. The only mention of defensiveness is in Matilda. She had fought valiantly, hiding the secret of her sore throat and cried blinding tears. Olson becomes impatient calling Matilda a damn little brat, emphasize her ignorance when he says she has to be protected from her idiocy.
