Question: Why might authors choose to tell a story using third-person omniscient point of view?

Question

A. It lets them get inside every character’s head.
B. It lets them focus on one character but still remain outside the story.
C. It lets them address the reader directly.
D. It lets them tell the story from the perspective of a character in the story.

Answer 1

A. It lets them get inside every character’s head.

Third-person omniscient point of view allows authors to have access to the thoughts and feelings of multiple characters in a story, giving readers a more comprehensive understanding of the events and the motivations behind characters' actions. This perspective can provide a broader view of the story than a limited perspective would allow.
