Drawing on an observation made by Jean-François Lyotard, Punday argues that at the heart of narrative are concrete objects that can serve as "lynchpins" through which many different explanations and interpretations can come together. Narrative after Deconstruction traces the often grudging emergence of a post-deconstructive interest in narrative throughout contemporary literary theory by examining critics as diverse as Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Elizabeth Grosz, and Edward Said. Experimental novelists like Ronald Sukenick, Raymond Federman, Clarence Major, and Kathy Acker likewise work through many of the same problems of constructing texts in the wake of deconstruction, and so provide a glimpse of this post-deconstructive narrative approach to writing and interpretation at its most accomplished and powerful. 606 $aNarration (Rhetoric) 606 $aDeconstruction 606 $aPostmodernism (Literature) 615 0$aNarration (Rhetoric) 615 0$aDeconstruction. 615 0$aPostmodernism (Literature) 676 $a808 700 $aPunday$b Daniel$01117068 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812693003321 996 $aNarrative after deconstruction$94048052 997 $aUNINA
