First Person/Third Person/Narrator

[edit]

As it stands, the synopsis seems confused about the person in which this novel is written. It is entirely in the First Person, with the extended proleptic sequences written as if Harrison were recounting Rainier's tale to the reader. It should not be seen as 'switching' between narrators.--Stevouk (talk) 17:43, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The very last paragraph in PART ONE is: So he began, and as it makes a fairly long story, it goes better in the third person.
The entire PART TWO is this narrative. agb 173.233.167.51 (talk) 17:12, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Fair use rationale for Image:RandomHarvest.jpg

[edit]

Image:RandomHarvest.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Dates

[edit]

The article previously said, "... after 1920 when he recovers his memories, no specific dates or historical events are given." While few specific dates are given, an invitation to the party that the Rainiers give for the prime minister is seen, dated May 24, 1935. The party ends after midnight, and Charles and Margaret mention that it's May 25, their 3rd wedding anniversary. Hence, we know that they were married on May 25, 1932. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:03, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Error

[edit]

In the fifth line on the second page (page 4), he mistakenly uses Dromedary to mean a two-hump camel. The Bactrian camel is the two-hump camel. agb 173.233.167.51 (talk) 17:21, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
