Narrative style refers to the way a story is told, encompassing the techniques and choices made by the author. It includes elements such as point of view, tone, and structure, which shape how the reader experiences the narrative. Common narrative styles include first-person, where the narrator is a character in the story, and third-person, where the narrator is outside the story. Different narrative styles can evoke various emotions and create distinct atmospheres. For example, a first-person narrative may provide intimate insights into a character's thoughts, while a third-person omniscient style can offer a broader perspective on multiple characters and events.
