A cheap narratology trick


An essay testing the limits of narratological close reading, and attempting to determine its usefulness in reading a novel about imagined technologies. This page also summarizes much of the plot of Distraction, and would be a good place to start acquiring a working familiarity with the novel.

The "cheap net-trick"


A section involving some neat data analysis of a scene underpinned by data analysis.
