Assess students' ability to identify and analyze narrative point of view and unreliable narration in contemporary short fiction. Tasks include identifying POV (first, second, third limited/omniscient) in short excerpts, citing textual signals of unreliability (contradictions, gaps, bias, narrative distancing), explaining how an unreliable narrator shapes characterization, theme, and reader interpretation, and comparing the narrative effects across two brief contemporary stories using concise textual evidence and critical reasoning.
