Narration

the account of the plot; the series of events described to the reader

.

First Person

: The narrator participates in the action of the plot. Reports information from his/her point of view and therefore is a biased source of information.

Readers need to determine quickly if a first person narration is reliable.

For obvious reasons, Poe loves this style.
