The Things They Carried

“Sweetheart of the song tra bong”

Why do you think O'Brien keeps stopping the story so that other characters can comment on it? How do these other conversations add to Mary Anne's story?

I think this is part of O'Brien's skillful narrative. He is able to bring in other points of view as well as develop character further.

Thank you Aslan :)
