From what point of view is "The Piece if String" told?

first person
second person
third person limited
third person omniscient

Respuesta :

The point of view that this is being told is third person limited because it only focuses on one character and uses the pronoun "he" 

The narrator is using third person but as we can only see two sentences, it is difficult to say if it is limited or omniscient.

The third person narrator tells the story using third-person pronouns: he, she, they. In this case we know it's third person because he is speaking about Mason Bloom, a "he"; we can see he uses "his eyes", "he looked".

There are three types of third peson narrator:

- Third person objective: seemingly neutral, impersonal observer or recorder.

-Third person omniscient: the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all the characters as well as all the events taking place. He can relate these thoughts and events to make the reader aware of things the characters ignore.

- Third person limited: the narrator only knows the thoughts and feelings about one character, he reports these from it's perspective.

In this case only Jason Bloom's feelings and events are narrated so we could say it is a third person limited but we don't know if there are more characters. If more characters appear, the reader must observe if the narrator knows everything about them or not.
