Magic of the Unreliable First-Person Narrator in Selected British Novels of the Second Half of the 20th Century
Mollová, Eliška ; Chalupský, Petr (advisor) ; Topolovská, Tereza (referee)
This thesis compares the unreliable first-person narrator in three British novels: A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess, The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro, and The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks. The unreliable first-person narrative form has the power to assimilate the reader's mind with that of the narrator and make him/her believe whatever the narrator wants, even though the events that are being described can be truly shocking. This thesis analyses why and how these authors use the unreliable first-person narrative form, as well as its impacts on the reader. Key words: unreliable first-person narration, British novels, 20th century, male protagonist
