Answer 7

Answer 8

@Missiey @Photon336

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

and "The story is told from the point of view of a third-person omniscient narrator, who can access the point of view of any character as required by the narrative".

Answer 11

@Photon336 can you put an example from the story why you think it is third-person omniscient

Answer 12

This is an example

"George unslung his bindle and dropped it gently on the bank. "I ain't sure it's good water," he said. "Looks kinda scummy." (ch 1, p. 2)

If George was talking to the reader, it would be first person. Instead, he is talking to Lennie. So this is still third person.

The use of the third person omniscient means we can see every character equally. We remain objective, and we can only see the characters like we were watching a movie. This distances us from the action, because we only know what characters are thinking based on what they say."

Answer 25

it would be George @punksauce

Answer 26

ah I guess so... He is more serious.. he's lonely and he acts as Lenny's caretaker. I don't really know what else to say about him other than he cares for Lenny even if he doesn't act like it. He's tough??
