Fictional Elements Exercise – Essay 2 Homework

Narrator

Description: the narrator is a unidentified in some stories, for instance in the first one, but
identified in other. In the stories where he is identified, he is the fictional character Tim
O’Brien who tells the stories of other soldiers in his platoon.

Point of view: Third person mostly describing the feelings, thoughts, and things the
soldiers carried on a daily basis. First person is also used in some instances

Reliability: O’Brien’s ability to use his memory to narrate to the reader the happenings of
the war makes him quite reliable.

Omniscience: The narrator is omniscient because he is all-knowing. He was there and,
therefore, understood the feelings, thoughts, and characters of the people he talks about.

Participant or non-participant: while in some cases he appears to be non-participant, in
most stories the narrator is participant e.g. in “The Things They Carried”

Setting

Time: The late 1960s

Place: Vietnam

Condition: Vietnam War

Plot

Inciting moment (first conflict): After receiving his draft letter the protagonist has to
decide whether to join or not. He joins the war
