Narrative style refers to the way a story is told, including the voice, perspective, and tone used by the author. It shapes how readers connect with the characters and events. For example, a first-person narrative, where the story is told from the perspective of a character like Harry Potter, allows readers to experience thoughts and feelings directly, creating a personal connection. Different narrative styles can evoke various emotions and reactions. A third-person omniscient style, where the narrator knows everything about all characters, can provide a broader understanding of the story's world. This choice influences how readers perceive the plot and engage with the characters.
