The Fall of a City
Point of View
The point of view in Fall of a City is Third Person point of view. I say this because, it doesn't address the main character as "I". It addresses him as "him."
Conflict
The types of conflict in "Fall of a City" are Human vs Human, and Human vs Self.
It's human vs human because Teddy's uncle keeps making fun of him for having "dolls" in the attic, while Teddy believes he's just being creative.
I believe it's Human vs Self because near the end, after getting teased by his uncle, Teddy started questioning what he made in the attic and in the end he ripped them up.
Setting
The setting includes: The house, the attic, the kitchen and living room, and in a way, Teddy's imagination.
Atmosphere/Mood.
In the middle, it was more steady and normal. Seeing Teddy come down from his imagination and being with his aunt and uncle.
And, in the end, it was more saddening and depressing, seeing Teddy getting made fun of for his creativity and then seeing him tear everything down.
The beginning is in a way happy and a little innocent, seeing Teddy have his imagination and his "dolls".
Characterization
Teddy is a dynamic character, going from very creative to doubting himself.
The aunt and uncle are both static characters, staying the same through out the entire story.
