Review: Point of View
Remember that POINT OF VIEW is the relationship of the narrator to the story. In the first-person point of view, the narrator is a character in the story, referred to as "I", who is telling the story. First-person point of view gives you excellent insight into the narrator's thoughts and feelings. In limited third-person point of view, the narrator is outside the story and reveals the thoughts of only one character. In a story with omniscient third-person point of view, the narrator can reveal events, thoughts, and actions of all the characters.
3. From what point of view is "Flowers for Algernon" written? Why do you think the author chose this point of view? Explain your answer with details from the story?
4. In what ways does Charlie's language show the effects of the operation on his mind?
