7. Omniscient Narrator
Tone—the writer’s attitude toward a subject or character—is affected by the choice of narrator. Through the use of an omniscient narrator, Saki creates a respect for what? For what does this narrator express contempt? What was the author’s purpose in writing this story (what did Saki want to show us)? How would have making the narrator focus on either Ulrich or Georg have distorted the author’s purpose?
The men
The feud
That feuds are ultimately destructive to the people who enter them
Focusing on either of the characters would have made readers sympathize with one over the other and would have diminished the effect of the feud as a pointless fight.
