The author said of this in an interview:
-->'''[[https://youtu.be/VlfDiV85joo?si=82lLJBqZV-KVvFLv&t=4633 Donna Tartt interview]]:''' It was obvious to me from the outset that this book had to be told from the point of view of a first-person narrator. It was essential that one never know what the other characters are thinking. There couldn't be an omniscient viewpoint -- you could never go into Henry's mind or into Julian -- because this is a novel of how the narrator is sort of gradually drawn into this and gradually fooled, and the reader should be fooled along with him.
