Description

Investigates novel forms and narrative style. Students will craft a novel (or write a prospectus and create a number of chapters) while developing an understanding of a novel?s elements including plot and thematic structure, scene and setting, sustained voice using first person, third person limited, and omniscient narrative, the use of multiple voices to manage momentum, the use of mirroring techniques, and weaving parallel subplots within the larger novel framework.
Prerequisite: graduate standing
