"Literature is the art of discovering something extraordinary about ordinary people, and saying with ordinary words something extraordinary."

Boris Pastemak

Characterization:

 A character is a person, an animal or even an object that participates in the action and experiences the events of a literary work. Writers communicate what characters are like through characterization: 

Direct characterization: The writer explains the character

Indirect characterization: The writer gives clues to a character by describing the character's behavior, words, thoughts, physical appearance or how others reat of the character.
