Main Characters and Their Development

  • Pygmy (Agent 67) — the main character and narrator of the book, a young terrorist sent to the USA under the guise of an exchange student. Throughout the narrative, he faces cultural shock, internal conflicts, and begins to question his beliefs and mission.
  • The Seaver Family — the American family hosting Pygmy. Each family member represents stereotypes of American society, and their interactions with Pygmy reveal cultural and social contrasts.
  • Mr. Seaver — the head of the family, a typical American father who gradually begins to see Pygmy as more than just a foreigner, but as a person.
  • Mrs. Seaver — the mother of the family, who tries to connect with Pygmy and shows him care.
  • Johnson Seaver — the son of the family, a typical American teenager who initially mocks Pygmy but later comes to respect him.
  • Seaver's Sister — the daughter of the family, who also goes through a process of acceptance and understanding of Pygmy.
