Evidently, everything in the storyline is seen through the narrator’s point of view. The points are suggested in the following quotation: “I have often wondered […]” (p. 1 l. 5) and ”[…] the old man seemed incongruous and pathetic” (p. 2 l. 35). In conclusion the first quotation obviously is the proof on the first point concerning a first-person narrator. Secondly, the following quotation clearly shows us the unreliability connected to the narrator due to the judgmental characterization of the protagonist, however, the narrator is telling the truth about the the narrator’s own personal view throughout the story.

A third-person limited omniscient is always with one character, but can also get out of the character's mind and tell it from a narrator's point of view.
