Tiny
The imagery of Tiny is enhanced by the narrator’s vivid description of his actions. As he spins in a balletic pirouette into the middle of the hallway. The reader is able to visualize his playful nature as well as develop a more polished, distinguished and sophisticated image of him. The description proceeds as:
“Tiny spins in a balletic pirouette out into the middle of the hallway and, laughing, shouts, “Dear World, I am not hot for Will Grayson. But the world, there’s something else you should know about Will Grayson.” And then he begins to sing, a Broadway baritone as big as his waist, “I can’t live without him!”
The Hideout
The narrator actively describes the appearance of the Hideout: a dive bar made of wooden planks nestled between a factory and a department building. The imagery becomes more pronounced as he presents the line forming at the door. The description follows a more precise approach as:
“The Hideout is a dive bar made of wooden planks that’s nestled between a factory and some Department of Transportation building. There’s nothing swank about it, but there’s a line out the door even though it’s only seven.”
Gary
The appearance of Gary as he rubs Jane’s arms up and down to warm her evokes a visual imagination of the scene in the reader’s subconscious. The description enables the reader to develop a more profound understanding of the depicted events and promotes the understanding of the events before the line starts moving:
“Gary is rubbing Jane’s arms up and down to keep her warm when finally the line starts to move.”
Isaac’s life
Isaac presents his perception of his life to Will. He presents how he feels like his life is scattered. He makes the image apparent via an employment of a simile in which the pieces are perceived as small pieces of paper which become scattered once a fan is turned on. Visual imagery is thus promoted in this context:
“I feel like my life is so scattered right now. like it’s all these small pieces of paper and someone’s turned on the fan. but talking to you makes me feel like the fan’s been turned off for a little bit. like things could actually make sense. you completely unscatter me, and I appreciate that so much.”
