Example text

That makes three and a penny. — Yes, sir, the chemist said. You can pay all together, sir, when you come back. 10— Good, Mr. Bloom said. He strolled out of the shop, the newspaper baton under his armpit, the coolwrappered soap in his left hand. At his armpit Bantam Lyons’ voice and hand said: — Hello, Bloom, what’s the best news? Is that today’s? Show 15 us a minute. Shaved off his moustache again, by Jove! Long cold upper lip. To look younger. He does look balmy. Younger than I am.

Thus the authorial position would fully concur with the position of the viewpoint character [sic] on the psychological plane. Also, the author would move through time and space together with this character, adopting his horizons— accordingly, the position of the author would concur with that of the character on the spatial-temporal plane.
