I am struggling with a technical problem - hopefully I can explain it in a way that makes sense.

I'm writing a story with a limited third person point of view - e.g. the entire narrative is funneled through the awareness of a particular character. However, I want to get aspects of other characters' views/personalities, etc. across to the reader that the main character would not necessarily be aware of. In other words, I want there to be more in what the main character sees/notices/hears than she herself realizes. And I'm struggling with how to do this.

Has anyone addressed this problem? Or - any recommendations of novels or short stories where this kind of thing is done well?

Thanks!
