  • Is the point of view consistent throughout the story (told from the same point of view), or does it shift at any points in the narrative? (If so, make note of when and how those changes occur.)
  • How does point of view shape your reading of the work? In what ways does it contribute to or detract from your reading of the work?
  • How does point of view relate to the story’s themes or content?
