I lost some of my need for the Black ghettos shielding-sponge quality, as I clanged and cleared my way down Market Street, with its honky-tonk homes from homeless sailors, past the quiet retreat of Golden Gate Park and along closed undwelled-in-looking dwellings of the Sunset District.Read the PassageWhat is the point of view of the story?: First Person Second Person Third Person - Limited Third Person - Omniscient Third Person - ObjectiveQuestion 5
