Point of View

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is

told in third-person. For the most of the
story, the narrator, who knows everything
about all the characters, generally stays
close to Harry Potter’s point of view,
registering surprise when Harry is
surprised and so on. But while Harry is a
baby in the first chapter, the narrator
takes the point of view of Mr. Dursley,
who is perplexed by signs of wizards
around town. The shift in point of view
from a Muggle’s perspective to wizard’s
emphasizes the difference between the
two worlds.
Theme
The value of humility, the occasional
necessity of rebellion, the dangers of
desire.
