Among the complex novel—writing skill, the narrative perspective plays an important role, and the most basic issue about narrating a story is mainly reflected in the narrative perspective of narrator's choice and use. Although since 19th century, the novel narrative perspective has become the key research topic of the critics, with the development of the literature itself, it become difficult for the reader to find a persuasive theory to instruct their own reading need. The purpose of this paper is to open up the gap between readers, authors, and narrators, and to build a bridge to facilitate their arriving at the other field freely.The first chapter of this paper makes its own explanations about the definition of the "non-normal" narrative perspective, and according to the difference of its natural and historical origin, it can be divided into three categories: Dwarf Perspective; Foolish Perspective; and Lunatics Perspective. From three aspects, the second chapter of this paper highlights that "non-normal" narrative perspective is not the traditional called perspective, but the perspective of a new concept, that is identity perspective. The third chapter focuses on the text read, and excavate the aesthetic effects of the "non-normal" narrative perspective. This paper believes that these aesthetic effects are mainly in four aspects: edge narration leading to the to the fore; absurdity and super-realism intertwined; the cross-narration of the cross-border perspective and multiple perspective; and making full use of consciousness.Because of its own aesthetic characteristics, "non-normal" narrative perspective has the unmatched advantages over other writing skills; however, the innovation of this special writing skill is rather difficult in practical. After entering our country, how this literature skill grafts and produces the new charm with our own literature, the explanations of many writers are just at the trial stage.
