Narrator

The narrator tells the story in a work of literature, and the narrator can be changed depending on how the author wants to reveal the characters to the reader. Sometimes, stories are told from the protagonist’s point of view — the “first-person narrative.” Sometimes the narrator takes us outside the characters to tell the story —- the “third-person narrative.” There are several kinds of third-person narratives that depend upon how much information the author wants the narrator to give: “Third-person objective,” “third-person omniscient,” and “third-person limited” are three examples of third-person narration.
