From what point of view is "Hills Like White Elephants" told?

""
is told from a third-person point of view.It is not omniscient because the narrator does not
access the thoughts of Jig, the American, or the waitress who brings their drinks as they wait
for their train.The story consists mainly of a dialogue between Jig and the American.The
narrator does not offer any of his own thoughts; it is essentially reportage, a style that
Hemingway was familiar with from his work as a journalist.

Hemingway was
interested in breaking away from -writing models of the past, and this story reflects his
embrace of Modernism.The reader must piece together through the dialogue the nature of the
conflict between the two characters.There is noor conclusion.The reporting of the conversation
and the descriptions of ordering drinks and walking through the train station are presented
objectively, leaving it the reader to interpret the story's meaning through almost solely what
is said.
