'We're all lying. We've all seen the show.'
perceptive and smart understanding here.
'we recognise so much that is vaguely familiar'
Honest with opinion, links things back to him and his past.
'do we talk like that, look like that?Yes. It could not be. It is. No.'
Shows indecisiveness, use of italics shows that hes talking to himself which could suggest that he is lonely and has no one but himself to talk to. Also shows incredulous thoughts, he doesn't even believe himself which could also show trust issues.
'after i get over my fleeting paranoia'
clearly not fleeting as there is a repeating theme of anxiousness throughout the book. Lexis paranoia isn't something fleeting, it is a deep set emotion so in a way i feel that he could lying about the severity of his emotions.
' "what kind of help do you need?" They ask.
"what do you want to do?"
"what kind of hours will it require?"
"what kind of time do you have?" '
Answering a question with a question, shows lack of confidence or knowledge. repetition of lexis what.
Good choice of quotes - is there more about the Might team that you could focus on? Some identification of techniques - more needed. I particularly liked when you looked at the unreliable narraror by exposing the oxymoron in "fleeting paranoia" and linked this to an ongoing motif throughout the memoir.
