quarantine 'em

Anybody ever seen a story which starts where the near-omniscient third-person narrator unexpectedly show up as "I" halfway through?

Like, it turns out that the narrator was a character this whole time, and they play a significant role in the back half of the story?

Slaughterhouse-Five is almost this, but establishes up front that the narrator is a minor character in the story. Here it would be a twist

If you haven't seen this device used, do you think it would work? (If you have, of course, it may be overused and hence worth ditching...)

Of course, just because something's been done doesn't mean it can't be done again, and better

Context: this Fine Structure rewrite. Was considering having Mitch "wake up" and become the perspective character at "The Story So Far"
