Read the excerpt from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza. Gustavo’s forwarding address was puzzling. The best we could make out it was a General Delibri. It sounded as if generals were in charge of the mail in the United States, nothing like our lista del correo in Acaponeta. This excerpt provides textual evidence that Barrio Boy is told from José’s point of view. Gustavo's point of view. the point of view of a person new to America. the point of view of a person new to Mexico.

Answer:

the point of view of a person new to America.

Step-by-step explanation:

Barrio Boy is an autobiographical story in which Galarza tells about his experience of leaving his homeland in Mexico, to escape the compulsory call for the Mexican army, and to try a better life in America. He tells of all the difficulties and surprises he had when he arrived in a completely different country.

The passage shown in the question above is told from the point of view of a person who has just arrived in America and was amazed and curious about how things worked in this very new and unknown territory.
