Point of View
Point of view, often abbreviated as POV, is a critical element in storytelling, influencing how readers perceive and engage with a narrative. It refers to the perspective from which a story is told, shaping the reader's understanding of events, characters, and themes. Whether through first-person, third-person limited, or omniscient narration, point of view determines whose eyes the audience sees through and whose thoughts and emotions they experience. This narrative device adds depth and complexity to literary works, offering diverse viewpoints and insights into the human experience. Understanding point of view is essential for both writers and readers to fully appreciate and analyze literature.
