 In his award-winning novel Let the Great World Spin,Colum McCann uses multiple viewpoints to a sometimes
dizzying effect. These varied views form a kind of living kaleidoscope with a
seemingly infinite number of perspectives. What a great reason to use varied points
of view — to enable a story to be as 3D as possible. Through this technique, McCann's
characters learn about each other and themselves. For more on multiple viewpoints,
see "Headhopping, Authorial
Intrusion, and Shocked Expressions." |
