Point of view is distinctly different in Fowler's A Good Neighborhood. The story is told in the first person plural, using the pronoun "we." Who that "we" represents is never made clear, but it seems to be the people of the title, the "good neighborhood" folks who live in Oak Knoll, a respectable middle class place, where people of different ages and races have lived together peacefully . Using this device puts a distance between the reader and the story and it made me a little uncomfortable.
