A First-Person Major-Character Narrator
Captions available
The idea
Jane tells her own story and is its main focus, which is the glossary's first-person major-character type exactly. Everything the reader learns arrives through someone whose interests are engaged in how it is understood, and that is a permanent condition of the book.
In practice
Her story, told by her.
Where people slip
The condition holds for the whole book.
