Exploring the intersection of narrative theory and fiction, Richard Walsh presents a rhetorical perspective that treats fictionality as a unique form of communication rather than a mere counterpart to nonfiction. This approach highlights the significance of fictional narratives in conveying meaning and challenges traditional views within narrative theory. Walsh argues for the value of this perspective, illustrating its profound implications for understanding the nature of storytelling and the role of fiction in narrative discourse.
