Point of View

1. What point of view does this story use?

 - Third person

2. What are the advantages of the chosen point of view? does it furnish any clues as to the purpose of the story?

- The author can focus on various plot points and an array of characters instead of being stuck to the one character though which the story is told.

3. Is the narrator reliable or unreliable? Does he/she have limited knowledge or know everything?

- The narrator has limited knowledge indeed. He doesn't know a lot about the characters and slowly reveals more and more as the storyline progresses.

4. Does the author use point of view primarily to reveal or conceal? Does he/she ever unfailry withhold importatn information known to the focal character?

- The point of view is mainly used to tell the story and to slowly reveal more.
