One way in which Junior is presented as a outsider is though his physical defects unlike everyone else Junior has physical defects .This makes him an outsider because his brain is delicate and he will find it difficult to fit in because of his appearance. Having cerebral spinal fluids was not normal so everyone saw him as an outsider . “I have water on the brain ” this quotation is tell us that he have something abnormal us he has water on the brain .
Another way which junior as an outsider is that he is poor. One example is when junior was at the pancakes shop he was to poor so that he was sick to his stomach he told roger half of the truth . He told him that he forgot his wallet home so roger payed for him . This is shows that he is poor and he cant not pay for his girlfriend nevertheless he cant pay for him self. Junior is an outsider because he was poorer than everyone else so if Roger payed for him that means he is poor and he thinks that would make him fell less than everyone else. The quotation I found was when Junior said “Hey , listen ,” he said “the reason i why i was getting sick, “I thought about telling him the truth but i just couldn’t , I bet your sick with love “, Roger said “No,well,yeah ,maybe ,”I said. “But the thing is , my stom-ach is all messed up because i forgot my wallet at home . I left my er, my money at home , man .” This quote told us that he couldn’t afford to pay .
Another way which Junior was seen as an outsider was when he had to walk home most days because they couldn’t afford to pay to pay for his gasoline for the car so he couldn’t ride home someday he used to get people who where entering the reservation to give him a lift but it wasn’t likely they to him home because he was know as a apple red outside white inside he wasn’t respected by the people in his reservation because they hated him.
In conclusion, Junoir is presented as an outsider in many ways the most affected is when they say his two names Anorald in Readon and Junoir in Wellpinit they say this because they treat him as two different people . This is the most effected one because an outsider has to be a strange in a certain way and this way tells us that he was different he doesn’t have much respect for people and the respect for him in two places are different .
