Re: Shifting Point of View
Regarding its use in this book, since we are talking about a complex story with several factions and interests, the narrative benefits from these multiple perspectives. Catrin, Marcellus, and Marrock have different alignments regardless of what happens throughout the development of the story.

The author seem to be open minded. That's a plus.cristinaro wrote: ↑01 Sep 2018, 07:58 Multiple perspectives or shifting point of view is the narrative strategy Linnea Tanner chooses to tell the story of the impossible love affair between Catrin and Marcellus. Such a strategy allows her to move from one perspective to another, including the one of the antagonist, Marrock, Catrin's half brother.
Do you think this startegy may create confusion or is it an effective way to give credibility to the story?
Is it a plus or a minus for the novel?
