20/20 Vision

Brewer wrote an impressively short composition called "20/20" but within the first paragraph he includes just enough exposition and character description in just a few lines that you get a feel for the characters. The comical way he describes the two main characters, Bill and Ruthie, you learn where they are each from and other differences between them, like the way they think and carry conversation. This piece of work, though only a few paragraphs is my favorite so far for all the reasons above but also because the point of view switches allowing the reader to see first from Bill's logical perspective then to Ruthie's whimsical thoughts.
