I think it would have been more effective if it was told in the view of the narrator. If it was told in a different view, we wouldn’t know the narrator's thought or feelings. Also being told in first person lets the story be told as true as possible instead of having it be told of a speculator.

Many times it is not because of age that the mind goes crazy, but the length of time a sane mind is kept in an unhealthy environment.
