Title: In Our Time as Self-Begetting Fiction
Author/Creator: Elizabeth D. Vaughn
Publication Details: Modern Fiction Studies, Vol.35(4), pp.707-716
Annotation: Metafictional reading, examining the relationship between art and reality. Vaughn claims Nick is the lone narrator and writer based on her examination of the unpublished coda to Big Two-Hearted River. Explores Nick s development of voice, arguing that he brings reality and fictionality together and blurs traditional distinctions between fact and fiction by forcing the reader, who reads the book a fictional character wrote, to participate in his fictional world.
