Haroun and the Sea of Stories

Could you please give some information about the narration, style

I have been searching for these element on every website but there is no reference to style, point of view of narrator, analysis of time and space. Just to give an example, it is wirtten in third person and the narrator is omniscient, he intervenue in the text sometime. All this detials are missing to the guideline. Anyway, your are doing a good job! The articles are really useful.

"Haroun and the Sea of Stories" is written in the first person. The narrator is unnamed. As far as style..... this story is written as a story with a story, which is also known as a frame tale.

Are you sure if it is the first person? For me it is third person. If its written in first person it doesn't means Haroun is telling the story?!

Yes, the reason for this is the fact that it's a frame story. The first person narrator is relaying the stories and appears three time to introduce give background.
