Read this excerpt from what maisie knew by henry james and answer the question that follows. thus from the first maisie not only felt it, but knew she felt it. a part of it was the consequence of her father's telling her he felt it too, and telling moddle, in her presence, that she must make a point of driving that home. she was familiar, at the age of six, with the fact that everything had been changed on her account, everything ordered to enable him to give himself up to her. she was to remember always the words in which moddle impressed upon her that he did so give himself: "your papa wishes you never to forget, you know, that he has been dreadfully put about." if the skin on moddle's face had to maisie the air of being unduly, almost painfully, stretched, it never presented that appearance so much as when she uttered, as she often had occasion to utter, such words. the child wondered if they didn't make it hurt more than usual; but it was only after some time that she was able to attach to the picture of her father's sufferings, and more particularly to her nurse's manner about them, the meaning for which these things had waited. identify the type of narration used in the excerpt. which words in the excerpt indicate the type of narration? what is the effect of this point of view on the reader’s interpretation of the information presented?
