- The article is part of an emerging wave of work challenging the ways narrative has traditionally been approached in the medical humanities. It addresses ideological implications of particular constructions of temporality that tend to characterise conventional illness narration, and challenge those in the context of chronic pain. It also coins a term for a particular kind of posture for critical reading. This article emerged from an AHRC-funded research grant in literary and critical medical humanities, Translating Chronic Pain. Social metric tabulator Altmetric scores it in ‘the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric’ (https://bmj.altmetric.com/details/31335571#score).
