Read Jhumpa Lahiri, “Interpreter of Maladies” (attached), focusing on the element of narrative point of view. Here is the writing prompt for your original post (300 words), which will be due by Thursday, Feb. 18 @ 10 pm:

What is the narrative point of view in this story (be specific), and how do you know that (what’s your evidence)? What does this particular point of view allow Lahiri to accomplish in the story? What insights are we able to observe through this specific narrative perspective that would be impossible with a different narrator?
