The Landlady (Roald Dahl)
What is the narrator point of view in the story, The Landlady (Roald Dahl)?
.
.
This story is written in past tense, from a third-person perspective. However, the narrator appears to be limited to Billy’s thoughts, which adds relatability to Billy’s character. It could be argued that the decision to use past tense narration creates an atmosphere of finality, which coincides with the theme of mortality that pervades the story.
