Hatchets third person omniscient point of view description?How does third person omniscient view help the reader understand Brain Robeson in the...

Having the novel Hatchet told through a 3rd person
perspective, is really what sets the tone for this book. Since Brian is essentially the
only character throughout the whole novel (other than the pilot who dies in the
beginning), readers are constanly focused around him, his actions, and his thoughts.
Having this third person power to be able and witness what Brian is going through
physically and mentally, is what makes this novel so compelling and exciting to read.
Being the only character, readers are able to emphasize and connect with him much more
easily than if there were multiple people vouching for survival. Readers are able to see
his transformation, some of his flashbacks, his thought process on surviving, and his
deepest moments in the wilderness. Having the book set through this omniscient view that
you mentioned, is really what makes the novel what it is.
