A short practical guide for students and readers who want to look past the surface of a novel or short story. It explains the main elements of fiction, including plot, character, setting, point of view, theme and style, and shows how each contributes to the effect of a work. Rather than offering a single method, it encourages readers to ask questions of the text and to support their interpretations with evidence from the story itself. The book suits anyone studying literature for the first time, as well as general readers who want a clearer sense of how stories are built.
