Kazuo Ishiguro and Max Frisch: Bending Facts in Unreliable and Unnatural Narration

Original language description

Zuzana Fonioková's study Kazuo Ishiguro and Max Frisch: Bending Facts in Unreliable and Unnatural Narration deals with unreliable narration and its borders with other types of subjective homodiegetic narration. The book traces the theoretical discussionssurrounding narrative unreliability and examines the relationship of unreliable narration to antimimetic techniques of portraying self-deception. Standing on the border between classical and postclassical narratology, the study analyses Kazuo Ishiguro?sand Max Frisch's innovative narrative strategies, offering new perspectives on their oeuvre and on unreliable narration as a narratological concept. A comparison of the methods Ishiguro and Frisch employ to explore the psychology of their narrators reveals a fascinating parallel in their development as novelists.
