I don’t know what the excerpt is, but Walt Whitman often gives the mood of unity.
From the sentence, "Tomorrow morning, Akiko will arrive an hour late" depicts a third person perspective because it doesn't use any pronoun to replace Akiko, the subject of the sentence, and it is in singular form since Akiko is only one person.
Dystopian literature shows how the future can end up. mostly illustrating how human life will be controlled by technology or strict rules under one government. and so it raises awareness for issues by showing how the world can end up if the problem/issue is avoided. hope this helps!
