    The point of view used by John Updike really lets you see from Sammy’s perspective. Without Sammy’s perspective seeing how he progresses throughout the story could not happen. The analogies also come into play here. For example when Sammy says, “The whole store was like a pinball machine and I didn’t know which tunnel they’d come out of”(Updike 150). Updike really describes the visual of how Sammy and Stokesie were anxiously waiting to see where they would appear. The point of view allows the reader to see how Sammy feels. For example when…

    The short story that I have chosen to analyze is “The gift of Magi” which in turn classifies the point of view analysis. The events of this story utilize the third person point of view where the author uses emotions and irony to describe the characters in the joyful month of December which in turn each other wanted to express their love with a gift. In essence, the author uses the third person point approach to formulate a suspense where the both couples decide to go above in beyond to reciprocate gift on Christmas day. Furthermore, the author also relates his thoughts and feelings and sets the tone giving irony and suspense throughout the story. In short, the third person point of view remained consistence throughout the story.…

When a story is being told using the first person, the author uses a character to tell the story. One example of the Narrator's point of view is the knowledge Louise did not really love her husband, because as the story stated, “yet she had loved him – sometimes. Often she had not” (Chopin, par13). The author also uses metaphors, for example. “The Storm of grief” (Chopin, par3) to describe how much pain she must have been feeling. (The Story of an Hour,…
