Description

In the wake of deconstruction and criticism focusing on difference, Newton makes a case for understanding narrative as ethics. Assuming an intrinsic and necessary connection between the two, he explores the ethical consequences of telling stories and fictionalizing character, and the reciprocal claims binding teller, listener, witness, and reader.
