Description
Fictional Dialogue: A Study of Speech and Conversation in Modern and Postmodern Novels By Bronwen Thomas, published by the University of Nebraska Press in 2012. This book explores the role of dialogue as a narrative technique in modern and postmodern novels. Through extended extracts and sequences of utterances, it examines how different versions of dialogue can shape our understanding of human communication and narrative. By combining literary and narratological analysis with reference to linguistic terms and models from various disciplines, Thomas sheds new light on the subject. The study not only critiques existing methods of analysis but also outlines a promising new approach for analyzing fictional dialogue. It draws on examples from literature, popular fiction, and nonlinear narratives to demonstrate the richness and versatility of dialogue as a narrative device.
