Summary

Vesna Solar: An Uncertain Story

Techniques of postmodern storytelling in Flaubert's Parrot by J. Barnes and Possession by A.S. Byatt

From the introduction: Based on narratology, which is occasionally expanded with elements of hermeneutics and semiotics, a close analysis of Flaubert's Parrot and Possession attempts to show how the narrative destabilization of the story is carried out. Namely, both works narrate complex stories, which differ significantly from the safe story of realism, but still manage to be stories. Narrative processes within the text as well as the place of the work in the genre system and its intertextual relations participate in the narrative creation of an uncertain story. Both Flaubet's Parrot and Possession create extremely complex intertextual relationships both with novels of realism and works of literary tradition, as well as with contemporary texts of fictional and non-fictional prose. Such complex intertextual relationships also mean the impossibility of accurately placing these works in traditional genres, so their genre affiliation can also be described as uncertain. Since the storyteller plays a key role in the creation of the narrative world, the analysis shows that the role of the storyteller and focalizer significantly contributes to the uncertainty of the story, just like the relationships between narrative levels, which create mise en abyme, making it impossible to single out one story as the first, most important and original.
