What is point of view?

• In literature, point of view refers to the perspective of the narrator. If the narrator is also a character in the story and uses pronouns such as "I" and "me," we say it is a first-person point of view.

• If the narrator is not a character in the story and tells the events from an outside perspective, we have a third-person point of view.

What is the point of view in the excerpt?

• In the first passage we are analyzing here, we have a first-person point of view. In the second one, a third-person point of view

• That means the only way we can know a character's thoughts and feelings is through what the narrator can observe himself in both passages.

• In both, the narrator describes Hyde's actions and his words. We do not "see into his head," that is, we are not told his thoughts directly. His behavior is what shows how he feels.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter D as the best option.
