The character death doesn't describe his own stories but instead tells other's story. When he tells the story readers can tell that he puts no emotion. He is very factual, right at the start of page three he states a fact, with no emotion "You are going to die" (Zusak 3). Since death talks with no emotion, there is almost no bias in his story, he is not afraid to tell it how it is, he even sometimes spoils the ending, still with no emotion. A big part of what gives humans humanity are emotions. How would the story change if the narrator changed to a human, or death had emotions? How would the world change if we all looked at the world like death? Would it build more conflict or make the world simpler?
