Did You Know?
The Summer of the Swans is told from the third-person limited point of view. The narrator describes theunspoken thoughts and feelings of only two characters. As you read the next five chapters, notice that the narrator sometimes focuses on Sara’s thoughts and feelings and at other times on Charlie’s.
Different Kinds of Conflict
See you in class, teacher Silvia.
Every story contains some type of conflict, or struggle. Novels often contain several conflicts. These may be external or internal. An external conflict exists when a character struggles with an outside force, such as another character or a force of nature. An internal conflict exists when a character is caught up in a psychological struggle. Usually, the character must make a difficult decision of some kind.
As you read the next five chapters, be alert to both kinds of conflicts.
