The Atlas Six is narrated in the third person limited point of view with multiple point-of-view characters. Each section in each chapter is narrated from a different character’s point of view: Libby, Nico, Tristan, Reina, Parisa, or Callum. As a result, the six protagonists are characterized both by their actions and physical appearance and also by their thoughts and feelings.
The different points of view enable the reader to understand the characters’ dynamics. Because they are either distrustful of the others or outright deceitful, having access to their perspectives clarifies their motivations. They may have somewhat limited perceptions of the other characters, but the reader can see the larger picture. This narrative technique also creates a dramatic effect when characters hide the truth from others, or even from themselves. Callum and Parisa’s abilities to read emotions and thoughts respectively often allow them to uncover concealed information, but their interpretations can also be limited or erroneous. The different points of view enable the reader to have access to more introspective moments from the protagonists while also forming a “bird’s eye view” of the narrative.
