comment on point of view

"A God in Ruins" is told from an omniscient narrator's point of view. Every word, thought, and action of every character is on display for the reader throughout the entire novel. Even when the story is being told from one person's perspective, information about other characters is thrown in because the narrator knows everything. It's as though the entire story is laid out and when a future piece impacts a present piece, it is given to the reader.
