Perspective is the main stylistic component in the book. As a child Hamper wanted absolutely nothing to do with working in an automotive factory. Hamper's father, along with the majority of family members on both sides, spent many years working on the factory line. Hamper thought nothing could be more boring and senseless. The heat, the noise and the repetition of the job seemed excruciating to Hamper. As a child Hamper wanted to become an ambulance driver. Alas, it was not to be.
