Step-by-step explanation:
Section 1: In the first section there was some imagery and personification. The author put imagery and personification in this section to describe everything that is going on in Eddies last moments on earth to the audience. “Out on the ocean, diamonds of sunlight danced on the water, and Eddie stared at their nimble movement.” (Albom 11). This shows the audience what Eddie was seeing at the time.
Section 2: The second section there is flashbacks. The flashbacks tell the audience what happened in the past that they wouldn’t know. “Take a rainy sunday morning in July, in the late 1920’s…” (Albom 42). This is telling the audience that there is a flashback being told.
Section 3: In the third section there are major flashbacks. In this section Eddie meets the second person in heaven and it is his Captain. There is a flashback to when Eddie was in World War 2. The author put flashbacks in this section because the audience doesn’t know about Eddies experiences at war and what he did.
