Point of View

1. What point of view does the story use? Is the story told from a first-person perspective, in which the narrator is one of the characters in the story, and refers to himself or herself as "I"? Or is the story told from a third-person perspective, in which the narrator is not one of the characters in the story or may not participate in the events of the story?
Ans: Third-person.
2. What are the advantages of the chosen point of view? Does it furnish any clues as to the purpose of the story?
Ans: There is no choice but to use third-person because the main character is a house and the house can't express it's feeling.
3. Is the narrator reliable or unreliable? Does he/she have a limited knowledge or understanding of characters and events in the story? Does the narrator know almost everything about one character or every character, including inner thoughts?
Ans: Yes, reliable. House is always the same no matter what. And so it doesn't have inner thoughts.
4. Does the author use point of view primarily to reveal or conceal? Does he ever unfairly withhold important information known to the focal character?
Ans:  He doesn't say much about the dead family. And he just tells what is going on but doesn't tell the meaning of it.
