In the third week, I had a lot of thinking about the narrative structure and perspective of the story. Usually, the narrative perspective is the first person or omniscient perspective, but I want to explore the multi perspective narrative. This narrative technique will enrich the story, not only limited to one perspective, but also render a suspense atmosphere many times. Many novels and films use such narrative techniques, including the classic film 'rashomom'
The beginning of the story: a giant fell down, and all parts of his body were scattered on the ground, starting a debate
Role: head, hands, abdomen, feet
Feet: blame the belly on it for getting heavier and heavier, bending itself, and finally leading to the fall of the giant
Stomach:argue that itself is only a passive receiver. The constant food and wine from mouth and throat on the head led to the fall of the giant
Head: accusing the hand is the real killer, because the food is taken by the hand
Hand: refutes the head. The nose and mouth on the head induce giants to overeat through smell and vision
