Why? The style of narration is the narrator's only, it doesn't *have*
to be influenced by the story he is relating at all. Usually, an
invisible narrator like the one in HP remains strictly consistent from
the beginning to the end of a book or series, no matter what happens.
Alla:
I disagree. I believe Carol recently (or relatively recently) gave
very good description of the narrator in the books. I don't remember
the correct name for such narrator, but such narrator is not ever
completely objective.
I think it is called limited third view narrator, but I am not sure.
The events are narrated not from Harry POV, BUT for the most part
narrator only sees events from Harry POV and identifies with him only.
If Carol reads it, maybe she will explain it better or corrects me.
