Point Of View

  This story is told in limited third person, with the narrator having knowledge about Ray's thoughts and emotions. At the beginning of the story it is hard to tell what point of view the story is told from, because the narrator doesn't say much about Jose or Ray's thoughts and feelings, but as the story progresses the narrator starts talking about what Ray is thinking. The narrator doesn't say much about the other characters other than their actions and words. The narrator also follows Ray when Ray and Jose split up, which helped me to realize the story was being in the limited third person point of view. I think this was probably the best way to tell the story because it really helps the audience to sympathize with Ray. By revealing just his thoughts and feelings, the audience can see the conflict in the story more easily.
