Industrial Revolution

Because the novel uses an omniscient (all-knowing) narrator, we are able to see and understand different characters’ reactions to the same event. In the table below, record how each character reacts to Bernard’s fame, and what it tells you about them.Characterfeels….What it says about him/her/themBernardJohnHelmholtzD.H.C.LeninaThe people1.
