The narrator uses a third-person limited point of view in this passage. This perspective allows readers to gain insight into Jonas's thoughts and feelings while maintaining a narrative distance. We see his anxieties and uncertainty about the upcoming Ceremony, but we don't have access to the thoughts of other characters.
Which point of view does the narrator use in the passage?
Jonas went to his own desk and began to assignment. But his mind was still on December and the coming Ceremony. Though he had been reassured by the talk with his parents he hadn't the slightest idea what Assignment the Elders would be selecting for his future, or how he might feel about it when the day came.
