- Double-weighted statement
- This long-form monograph, which runs to 292 pages, provides the definitive account of what a reader needs to do to make sense of a fictional narrative text. It combines modern insights from multiple methodological perspectives, including discourse analysis, psychology and corpus linguistics to make a robust set of proposals for how textual features help guide the reader through a narrative and how readers interact with these textual features.
