About this title

Synopsis

Taking in turn each of the stories in A Hero of Our Time, the authors anaylse the rhetorical strategies devised by the narrators. In so doing, they determine the nature of the irony running through the novel, and reveal how A Hero of Our Time is one of the most convincing and compeling portraits of psychoticbehaviour in any literature.
