Narrative perspective is the point of view from which a story is narrated, and it is one of the central elements examined in the analysis of narrative texts. The comprehensive and organized model established by Boris Uspensky and Roger Fowler to investigate the viewing angle is one of this discipline's most important analytical techniques. Using linguistic methods, this model, which has four sections (temporal, spatial, psychological, and ideological), investigates the narrator's role throughout the narrative. This descriptive-analytical study investigates the narrator's viewpoint on the above four levels in "Ya Maryam" by Sinan Antoon, one of the contemporary Iraqi authors. According to this research, Ya Maryam has multiple storylines. The first-person and the omniscient third-person point of view, the internal point of view, are employed to explain the characters' thoughts and feelings. According to ideological studies, Antoon tries to clarify the rights of Christianity and condemn the current position of Christians. In the form of the narrative's central characters, he tells the face of Iraqi Christians who move due to insecurity and injustice.
