Module 7: Perspective in Creative Nonfiction

This document provides an overview of Module 7 which focuses on perspective in creative nonfiction. The module objectives are to identify how point of view, tone, and angle are used similarly in creative nonfiction and fictional works; analyze factual and nonfiction aspects in CNF texts; evaluate the relationship between creative and nonfiction elements; write and revise a personal essay; and do a close reading of CNF texts. It discusses how point of view and angle seem less important in fiction but are key elements in CNF. Tone, or the author's attitude, is also important in both fictional works and essays. Tone is as significant as other elements in creative nonfiction.
