comment on point of view

The author of the book I Dared to Call Him Father is the subject of the book and therefore written from her point of view. The chronological account of Bilquis Sheikh's conversion from the Islamic faith to Christianity reveals the roller-coaster of emotions that Bilquis faces during this sojourn. Initially, Bilquis is scared of an unknown presence she feels about her. Her dreams of Jesus Christ and John the Baptist while not scary in content, are frightening to her in their potential meaning.
