Select the correct answer.

What point of view has Antanas Kaztauskis used in this excerpt from his memoir?

At last I was in a boarding house by the stockyards in Chicago, with three Lithuanians, who knew my father’s sisters at home. That first night we sat around in the house and they asked me, “Well, why did you come?” I told them about what the shoemaker said about “life, liberty and the getting of happiness.” They all leaned back and laughed. “What you need is money,” they said. “It was all right at home. You wanted nothing. You ate your own meat and your own things on the farm. You made your own clothes and had your own leather. The other things you got at the store and paid him with sacks of rye. But here you want a hundred things. Whenever you walk out you see new things you want, and you must have money to buy everything.”

I believe it is first-person because of the use of "i" in the paragraph.

Hoped this helped!
