Nature, not art, makes us all story-tellers. Daily and nightly we
devise fictions and chronicles, calling some of them daydreams or
dreams, some of them nightmares, some of them truths, records,
reports and plans. The object of this book is to look at these
natural narrative forms and themes, which have been neglected by
critics but recognized by narrative artists, using literary
criticism in order to argue the limits and limitations of
literature. Although Hardy's suggestions about narrative apply
broadly to all artistic forms, in the second part of the book she
approaches the subject through a detailed analysis of three
authors, Dickens, Hardy and Joyce, all profound and far-reaching
analysts of narrative structures and values.
