In the book, “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak, Death introduces itself as the book’s narrator and describes its journey after one dies. Death carries one’s soul from their body and death deliberately tries to notice colors. The perpetual survivor of the story is Liesel Meminger. There are three episodes in which Death interacts with Liesel. First, Death describes the binding of white snow and paints a scene with two guards.

There is a corpse on the ground by a stopped train and the guards argue about what to do about the corpse. Death tries to focus on the snow. A plane crashed, and a boy with a toolbox arrives at the first scene. Liesel, the book thief, comes next. Death carries off the pilot's soul. The next color is red, which is the fiery destruction of a massive bombing raid. Death explains that three colors, red white and black most resonate with memories of Liesel. He draws them on a page with a dash of red, a circle of white and a swastika for black.
