Recenzii
The Pace of Fiction is a remarkable book that seems productively not of its moment — at times lingering in a world that seems to have long been superseded in the literary-critical profession, at others one or two steps in advance of that profession. It is thoroughly engaging and restlessly intelligent, and it offers a new way to think about some of the deepest, if also some of the most occluded and unaddressed, questions in the history of novelistic form.
...offering a compelling genealogy of the English-American-French-German novel driven by the narrative interplay of scene and summary as its forward-propelling motor.
I recommend it to those invested in narratology and close reading in general and specifically to those who wish to delve into ways narrative pacing has come to be measured and transformed throughout literary history.
Brian Gingrich's The Pace of Fiction: Narrative Movement and the Novel is a short book that makes big contributions to our understanding of both the novel's history and its modes of shaping time.
[A] major scholarly contribution... With every page, The Pace of Fiction is packed with original insights and methodological innovation, and it invites scholars of many disciplines and periods to respond with more studies of pace, its techniques, and its finely nuanced history.
