Second person narratives directly address the reader as "you" and immerse them in the story, guiding them through the events as if they are experiencing them firsthand. Examples include "Bright Lights, Big City" by Jay McInerney and "If on a winter's night a traveler" by Italo Calvino.

What are the types of narratives in stories?
This question is too vague. We could talk about first-person narratives, third-person narratives and third-person omniscient narratives. We could talk about narratives written in the past tense and those written in the present tense and those which cannot make up their minds. We could talk about quest-type narratives, or mystery-type narratives, or romance-type narratives, or conflict-type narratives. We could distinguish between mundane narratives, epic narratives, and mythic narratives. There are lots of possibilities here.

Why is there no second person point of view?
Second person point of view, where the narrator addresses the reader as "you," is less commonly used in literature because it can come across as demanding or intrusive.

Overall, it tends to be more effective in shorter, interactive forms like instructional guides or game narratives.
