"Forever Overhead" DFW

Once again in DFW's "Forever Overhead, he uses vivid imagery to describe the scenes and characters to the reader.His descriptions are almost life-like and as a reader you are able to picture them in your mind. "Two clean little bright-white boys caped in cotton towels run along the poolside until the guard stops them dead with a shout through his bullhorn." This sentence paints a perfect picture. I can imagine the scene in my head. He keeps the readers wanting more and uses many metaphors throughout the story. Karr mentions capturing childhood during her interview, which correlates with DFW's piece. He captured the image of a childhood birthday party and made the reader feel as if they were there witnessing it.
