Book Thief – Structure

Quotes:

“he saw it but didn’t realize until later” Foreshadowing

“It would carry … a book” Foreshadowing the arrival of the second book. Perhaps the death of Hans Huberman who is out of sorts? Death could be the symbolism of the first book.

“It would carry … two questions” vague unclear

“That was one war started Liesel would soon be in another” More foreshadowing. Obviously something extremely confrontational, negative, deadly was coming (connotations of war)
