My brain was drowning in grease. but that makes the whole thing sound weirdo and funny, like my brain was a giant french fry, so it seems more serious and poetic and accurate to say, “i was born with water on the brain.” okay, so maybe that’s not a very serious way to say it, either. maybe the whole thing is weird and funny. but, jeez, did my mother and father and big sister and grandma and cousins and aunts and uncles think it was funny when the doctors cut open my little skull and sucked out all that extra water with some tiny vacuum? how does the choice of a narrator affect the characterization and credibility of the text?

The point of view of the narrator is first-person, so we get the inner thoughts and actions of one character. This particular character is telling the story of his childhood, so we must rely on him to give us reliable information. When the point of view is first-person, it is inevitable that the narrator gives us biased information because he or she only sees things from one perspective and experience. For example, the character was born with issues with his brain, so it's a fact of life for him. As a result, his tone is flippant and humorous rather than serious. He even says, sarcastically, that his family members must have thought it was funny when he had to have brain surgery as a baby. His sarcasm hides any negative emotion he has about the surgery and hints that his family was upset. Yet, due to the narrator's personality and limited point of view, we can only be confident in what he actually reveals.
