"... this is one of the few books on narrative worth reading and rereading, a study that will make―or should make―a difference in the way we read narrative." ―Nineteenth Century Fiction

This book, long out of print, is now available in a paperback edition, providing another window into one of the most exciting minds working in the areas of literary and biblical literary criticism.
