Original text-” You sleep soundly until a flood of light wakes you up at six in the morning that glass roof doesn’t have any curtain. You bury your head under the pillow and try to go back to sleep. Ten Minutes later you give it up and walk into the bathroom, where you find all your things neatly arranged on a table and your few clothes hanging in the wardrobe. Just as you finish shaving the early morning silence is broken by that painful, desperate yowling.”
First Point of View
“I slept soundly until a flood of light woke me up at six in the morning that the glass roof didn’t have any curtain. I buried my head under the pillow and I try to go back to sleep. Ten Minutes later I give it up and walk into the bathroom, where I find all my things neatly arranged on a table and my few clothes hanging in the wardrobe. Just as I finish shaving the early morning silence is broken by that painful, desperate yowling.”
Third point of view
She slept soundly until a flood of light woke her up at six in the morning that the glass roof didn’t have any curtain. She buried her head in the pillow and she tried to go back to sleep. Ten Minutes later she gave it up and walked into the bathroom, where she finds all her things neatly arranged on a table and her few clothes hanging in the wardrobe. Just as she finished shaving the early morning silence is broken by that painful, desperate yowling.
In the original text, I think it directly talks to the reader. It sorts of sets a command that the reader itself is in the story and performing the specific task.I think I personally think the reader can make a connection better through first person point of view. I personally prefer first person point view over second person point of view. In the second point of view, it sounds choppy whereas the third view sounds like a person is inviting us into their life where we can observe the circumstances of the character.
Once again I believe that the most correct version or my favorite point of view for this passage has to be the original. The original point of view that the author decided to use more personal messages to try and get across to the reader. My least favorite point of view has to be the third point of view simply because I have no personal connection to the way the story is being told and I think the reason why is because it is in the past tense and as someone mentioned earlier, something in the past tense is not taken as serious as something in the present tense because something in the past tense has already occurred. The first person point of view was also great because it still provided that personal connection that the author was trying to promote but which was lacking in the third person point of view. Overall, the point of view makes an important outcome to a story.
