story is told in third-person point of view and this person knows everything. The narrator in this story is not a character directly involved in the story‚ and can see all of the characters‚ their thoughts‚ and intentions.

So‚ I think that the narrator is telling the story in Montag’s old age‚ or years after his death.

noticed that Christopher wasn't afraid to be himself. He has his own mindset that is different from most of the characters in the book‚ and he expressed that very well throughout the book.

This also brings up the possibility of him over
