Answer:
Tish is the narrator of the novel. She is nineteen, and she serves as a deeply empathetic and perceptive narrator. Trudier Harris, in "The Eye as a Weapon in If Beale Street Could Talk," notes that "Tish's innocence, along with her natural abilities at perception, draw the reader into the story and encourage empathy with her." She is a sensible narrator, and she doesn't let the troubles of her life destroy her. This, in turn, lifts the characters of the novels up while endowing their stories with complexity and room to breathe. In this way, even though "Beale Street" is Tish's story, she is not self-centered. She allows all of her characters, even characters she disagrees with or abhors, like Mrs. Rogers and Officer Bell, room to speak. Tish is the only female narrator in Baldwin's writing.
Most of the time, Tish's point-of-view is first-person limited; however, there are many points throughout the novel (Fonny and Daniel's conversations and Sharon's trip to Puerto Rico, for example) where her point-of-view becomes omniscient.
