One afternoon, after another dreary Sunday, he walked home from Mrs. Cobb's with the sea breeze determined to shove him to Malaga Island. It scooted around him and pulled at his ears. It threw up the dust of the road into his face to turn him around, and when he leaned into it, it suddenly let go and pushed at him from behind, laughing. But with the iron word forbidden tolling like a heavy bell by his ears, Turner would not let himself be brought to Malaga. And so with a last abrupt kick, the sea breeze twisted around and left him. Turner watched it rushing pell-mell down Parker Head and toward the shore. "Go find Lizzie," he whispered.

Explanation:

In writing, the third-person narrator is any story that is being told using the grammatical third-person, this is to say using the articles he, she and/or they. The third-person narrator can be omniscient or limited. If it is limited, the narrator will only tell his/her own thoughts, and will limit to describe other's actions and words, and not their thoughts as the limited narrator can not know them. An omniscient narrator, as the one from the excerpt, knows all of the thoughts and feelings of all of the characters within the story.
