Book Synopsis Somebody Telling Somebody Else by : James Phelan
Book excerpt: Somebody Telling Somebody Else proposes a paradigm shift for narrative theory, contending that a view of narrative as a rhetorical action offers greater explanatory power than the standard view of narrative as a synthesis of story and discourse. James Phelan explores the consequences of this proposal for the interpretation of a wide range of narratives, from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to Ian McEwan's Enduring Love.
