Kan kurz wer über meine characterisation gucken ob ich villeicht Fehler gemacht habe bei den Sätzen und diese korrigieren were ^^supi nett Danke im Voraus
The main character (third person narrator) in Keith Marklund`s short story ,,The best man on the Bus” is Lyle Morgan.
The two other main characters in the story are Sandy and her friend Paul.(They are young newlyweds)
There is no information in the text about Lyle’s age, but we can estimate it that Paul and Sandy are at least 18 years old, because they are legally married.(see line 80)
We can find out that the young mans (Paul) hair was red and the young womens (Sandy)hair was honey blonde.(see lines 25-28)
The most interesting thing is that Lyle Morgan is a District Attorney for Fair fax County.
The policemen describes Lyle as the best man who likes to help people with there problems.
The young couple don´t be very friendly, because they talk loudly and doesn´t pay any attention at Lyle.
Lyle Morgan is guy who always remembers his past and how he run away with his wife.
We can describe Lyle as a kind and sensible guy who is to some extent alone and a person who can easily get lost in his own thoughts.
We can pick out of the text that the couple quarrel often, because they are living in the fear that one of the woman’s young parents may think that Paul kidnapped her and accordingly the police may arrest them.
We can say as well that Paul is definitely unsure weather Sandy happy or not.
(see lines 18,51)
All in all I would say that Lyle Morgan is an friendly man who is always thinking about his past.
I would say Paul and Sandy are a couple, who has difficulties in their relationship, because of theirs family, who don´t agree with their marriage.
