Question

What is the effect of the story's point of view? a first-person narrator like Mrs. Mallard can demonstrate how her opinion changes with her observations. a first-person narrator allows the reader to experience the emotions and feelings Mrs. Mallard is feeling. a third-person omniscient narrator can guide readers through Mrs. Mallard's changing emotions by describing her transition. a third-person limited narrator allows readers to observe only the outward physical response of Mrs. Mallard as she reacts to the events of the story.

Answer 1

A third-person omniscient narrator can guide readers through Mrs. Mallard's changing emotions by describing her transition.

Step-by-step explanation:

A third-person omniscient narrator/ narrative voice is the point of view from an uninvolved character narrating the sequence of the story. This point of view allows the narrator to present the characters and their feelings without being a part of the story.

In Kate Chopin's "Story of an Hour", the third person omniscient narrator gives us access to the feelings and emotions of Mrs. Mallard. At the same time, we are also guided through her changing emotions and transitions.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
