Autori jutustajavaliku ning nende vaatenurga ja perspektiivi analüüsimine annab lugejale sügavama arusaama loost, tegelastest, nende kallutatusest ja motivatsioonist. Saatja juurde naasmise autor Julia Alvarez otsustas kasutada loos kahte jutustajat, kes andsid hääle nii Ameerika kui ka Mehhiko perekonnale. Õpilased saavad luua süžeeskeemi, mis tuvastavad loos olevad kaks jutustajat, vaatenurka ja nende vaatenurki.
