The day after the shipwreck sinks
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
It had been raining for seven years; thousands upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the other with rain, with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet crystal fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands. A thousand forests had been crushed under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again. And this was the way life was forever on the planet Venus, and this was the schoolroom of the children of the rocket men and women who had come to a raining world to set up civilization and live out their lives.
first-person point of view
second-person point of view
third-person limited point of view
third-person omniscient point of view
Answer:
third-person omniscient point of view
Explanation:
The above excerpt presents third-person narration with an omnipresent point of view. We can see this because the narrator knows many factors at the same time and that he establishes himself in different places, which proves that the narrator is omniscient. Furthermore, the narrator does not present himself as a character and does not use first person pronouns, which indicates that this is a third person narration.
The events of the radio version of the War of the Worlds take place in the United States, to be more precise in Grover´s Mill, New Jersey.
It was an adaption made by Orson Welles of 1898 H.G. Wells´s novel " The War of the Worlds". Orson adapted the story to placed it in 1939, year in which they were at the time of the broadcast transmission.
In the novel the events took place in England and are told to have happened before. But in the adaptation it was changed the place, the time and the tense in which the story was told. Orson Welles decided to told the story as it was happening in the present.
Hope this answer helps you. Regards.
