Relating Events in Narrative: Typological and Contextual Perspectives:of the Frog Story Studies, Vol. 2
I've slowly read about 2/3 of this dense, difficult, strange book...and that's as much stamina as I have right now so I'm stopping here. A lot of this confounds me. But it earns the adjectives "wild" and "unforgettable." This guy really goes to work on the matter of language. I hope to reach the point of being able to read the whole thing some day.
