A/N: Alright, here's a redo of my point of view piece. This time I'm explaining how the story from John Watson's view in the Sherlock Holmes books changes how the reader views the story.
In detective stories the point of view is very important. At a crime each person sees a different thing. In the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the readers see everything from Dr.Watson's point of view. This is very important in how the each case is presented to the reader. If it were from, say, Holmes point of view the books would be much longer and we would be informed of nearly everything going on in the famous detectives head. If it were written from one of the victims point of view we wouldn't be informed of some very important details, or even the other way around! Even the view of a random passerby would drastically change the books and the stories.
