The multiple perspectives benefits us because different characters know different things and it helps because the different characters that recount the story also have a different life, living under different conditions. With them recounting the story we get a bit of a taste of what they go through. This also creates suspense which is always good for a reader, otherwise you’d be pretty bored and throw the book away. It creates suspense because the different knowledge that are told are sometimes not given with a bit of background information on what it’s actually about, making you not know what’s going on. Some characters that recount the story are, Rat, Grace, Father Juilliard, Sister Olivia, Gardo and Raphael.
