This book attempts to clarify the narrative conditions of humanism,
asking how we can use stories to complicate our understanding of
others, and questioning the ethics and efficacy of attempts to
represent human social complexity in fiction. With case studies of
films like Parenthood (1989), American Beauty (1999), Little Miss
Sunshine (2006) and The Kids Are All Right (2010), this original
study synthesises leading discourses on media and cognition,
evolutionary anthropology, literature and film analysis into a new
theory of the storytelling instinct.
