- Annotation
- Plumbs the nature of storytelling by way of Hemingway's famous, and possibly apocryphal, six-word story. Reflects on ideas of first-person perspective, personhood, authorial love, and Bakhtin's "aesthetic seeing" to assert that, despite the storytelling intention of Hemingway (or whoever wrote the "baby shoes" ad), the power of successful narratives Is theological.
