Quotes: "...that man is a very unevolved species compared to the animals."

"Certainly there was more  extermination than was strictly necessary for nutritional purposes"

Analysis: In these two quotes, the narrator views the human race, as a barbaric and unevolved species.

The narrator in the story isn’t chosen for the voyage on Noah’s ark, he is a stowaway.
”… I was specifically not chosen. I was a stowaway …” (p. 2 l. 5-6)

"As i was saying"(p. 22 l. 14) and "I can see there might be a positive side.....(p.23 l.18)". 

This gives a subjective point of view, since we only get to know what the narrator thinks and believes.

Quote: God's wrath with his own creation was news to us; we just got caught up in it willy-nilly. We weren't in any way to blame (you don't really believe that story about the serpent, do you? — it was just Adam's black propaganda)

The woodworm wasn't meant to be on the ark, and this is shown in the text by this quote ''I was specifically not chosen. I was a stowaway.'' (page 2, line 5 - 6).

Even though the text directly tells us that the woodworm is a stowaway, you can clearly by reading it, understand that the woodworm was on the arc by accident.

Claim: The narrator is sceptical and suppressed

Quote: “We knew where we were with Noah only in this one respect: that we never knew where we were with him.” (p. 22, l. 11-12)

Analyze: The narrator can never be too sure about Noah, because Noah is a drunken alcoholic and he becomes a carnivorous – therefore he can loose his friends. Besides the woodworm was never attended to be on the ark and is therefore always in danger. The woodworm is an observer and because of his size he is able to experience Noah and the rest of the Ark very intense.  

The narrator wants to show the reader that the story we know about Noah’s Ark is not realistic.

“Remember too that we had the whole of the animal kingdom on board: would you have put the cheetahs within springing distance of the antelope?”

The quote shows the bad sides of Noah’s Ark. It shows that the story we know where all of the animals could stand side by side without any problems simply would not be possible.  

• The narrator is a woodworm. Quote; "after all, it's not our fault for being woodworm.", page 23, line 27.
• The narrator of the story is a first person narrator. Quote; " " ( page 23, line 18) 
• The person is explicit subjective, because the narrator expresses his opinions about the other characters explicit; God, Noah and the other animals. Quote;" You aren't too good with the truth, either, your species. You keep forgetting things, or you pretent to. The loss of Varadi and his ark — does anyone speak of that? I can see there might be a positive side to this willful averting of the eye: ignoring the bad things makes it easier for you to carry on. But ignoring the bad things makes you end up believing that bad things never happen. " page 22, line 13- 16
• In the text the narrator speak/write to the reader of today, quoted in the text as "you". He confronts todays reader, with his side of the story of Noah`s Ark. Quote;"you never ask, for instance, this question about your early history: what happened to the raven? " Page 19, line 11-12
