Style choices
Disappointed - parallelism, repetition
Unwilling to adapt, feels patronised, sarcasm (learning the language)
Anecdote - symbolic of a wider issue
Sees request for ID as disrespectful - lack of trust for immigrants
Shopkeepers are also immigrants - they are two groups of immigrants against each other, adds to the pressure of simulation
They weren't questioned in their home country - loss of status
Triplet - "dust, sweat and gasoline" - manual labour, brutal
"Widower" - love for his home, something missing, simile, analogy, figurative, bereavement
