O'Brien used a thorough, almost historical storytelling method to explain the story of the first person. In "I killed a person", O'Brien avoids directly in the face of the boy's death - he is trying to do this clinical study "ambush" - the story of the narrator is the word "I" I have never used it.

As they are struggling to overcome the content of the novels, the students expressed sympathy for O'Brien's assertion.
