The omniscient third-person narrator
is a kind of god; he is all-knowing. He knows 
everything about the fictional world he has created: he can read other characters' innermost 
thoughts, he is able to be in several places at once, he knows exactly what is going to

happen and how each character will behave. He is free to tell us as much or as little as he 
wishes. An omniscient third-person narrator who interrupts the narrative and speaks 
directly to the readers is called 
obtrusive.
He may use these intrusions to summarise, 
philosophise, moralise or to guide the reader's interpretation of events. This kind of narrator 
was particularly popular in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. If the narrator does not 
address the reader directly he is referred to as non-obtrusive.
 
When an author uses a 
limited omniscient narrator
, he chooses a character in the story 
and tells the story from his point of view. This character becomes the centre of revelation 
and the reader sees the events and other characters from his viewpoint. If the narrator 
moves back and forth between an omniscient viewpoint and the viewpoint of the focal 
character, we refer to the narrative technique as 'free indirect style'. Free indirect style is 
perhaps the most widely-used mode of narration in modern fiction. Limited omniscient 
narration involves the reader more than pure omniscient narration. By associating the 
narrating voice with one of the characters in the story, the author gives it an identity and 
therefore makes it more interesting for the reader. Also, because much of the story is told 
from the partial viewpoint of one of the characters, the reader gets the idea that anything 
can happen in the course of the novel, just as it can in real life.
