- Annotation
- Narratological approach using A Farewell to Arms to consider how thinly drawn characters limit the reader s interpretative freedom and ability to imagine the other. Contends that the simplicity of Count Greffi and Catherine in both language and self-description reminds readers of their limited knowledge and inability to penetrate the text s simplicity.
