Q #5: If the pov is that of one of the characters, does this character have any limitations which affect his/her interpretation of events or persons?

Throughout Bram Stoker's Dracula, the various points of view all have limitations; some of these limitations are larger than others, but this is still very important to the plot. It is the gaps in the plot that certain characters cannot relay that make the book interesting, because the reader knows that another character will fill them in. This is particularly important for Mina Harker and Lucy Westenra, who both get bitten by the Count and are doomed to become vampires. As they eventually whittle into a form that is either too weak or too transformed to write, or they cannot see the changes in them that others can, Dr. Seward or Jonathan Harker must describe the story from a different perspective so that the reader can get all of the details. The epistolary format of this book makes this very easy to do for Bram Stoker, and it becomes very interesting when you hear different characters relay the same event in completely different ways.
