Summary

Novelist Sudenick (English, U. of Colorado-Boulder) proposes fiction as a medium for telling the truth. He presents ten pieces he calls narralogues -- simultaneously narrative and argument, story and rhetorical pleading -- that exemplify and advocate fiction as persuasion. The sequence moves from Socratic dialogue to outright narrative using traditional techniques of fiction, including comedy, irony, suspense, and the erotic throughout.

Author Biography

Ronald Sukenick is Professor of English Literature at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
