Which point of view allows the audience to know the thoughts and feelings of only one character?

The correct answer is the point of view that is referred to as third-person limited. This perspective allows the narrator to present the story through the experiences and inner thoughts of a single character. In this narrative style, while the narrator describes events occurring in the story from a third-person perspective, they maintain a focus on just one character's emotions and thoughts.

This allows the audience to gain insight into that character's feelings, motivations, and personal experiences, creating a sense of intimacy with that character while still being told in a third-person voice. The limitation to just one character's perspective distinguishes this point of view from third-person omniscient, where multiple characters' thoughts and feelings can be revealed. It also differs from first-person, where the narrator is a character in the story sharing their direct experiences, and from second-person, which directly addresses the reader as ‘you’ and does not delve into individual character thoughts.

By using third-person limited, the author can craft a nuanced and focused narrative that emphasizes the specific internal world of one character, enhancing the reader's engagement with that character's journey.
