Miss Brill

1) Describe the narration used in "Miss Brill"
In the story Miss Brill, I thought that there were two main narrations used, Limited and Unreliable.  I think that those take place because it doesn't seem like the narrator knows whats going on.  In my opinion she is kind of crazy and you can see it at some parts throughout the story, but at the end it stands out more.  This story was kind of hard to follow because it was all over the place and the narration didn't seem to help that at all.


2) How reliable is narration in"Miss Brill"?  What are some clues that the actual events in the story are somewhat different than the narrator's version?
I wouldn't say that the narration is reliable because it seems to skip over parts and leave some stuff out, leaving the reader confused.  I found this story quite difficult to keep track of what is going on because it seemed to jump around at parts.
