Narrative voice refers to the perspective from which a story is told. It encompasses the tone, style, and personality of the narrator, influencing how readers perceive the events and characters. Different types of narrative voices include first-person, where the narrator is a character in the story, and third-person, where the narrator is outside the story. The choice of narrative voice can significantly affect the reader's connection to the story. For example, a first-person narrative may create intimacy, allowing readers to experience the protagonist's thoughts and feelings directly. In contrast, a third-person narrative can provide a broader view of the plot and multiple characters.
