This two-part book brings a fresh perspective to the often neglected narrative ’you’. It deals with aspects of authorial, psychoanalytical and literary significance in the creation of fiction which draws on personal material confrontational to the writer. The essay ’A Singular Voice’ examines the use of the second person singular personal pronoun as narrator in contemporary fiction, concentrating on ways in which it may be employed to achieve a cover, mask or persona for the ’I’ behind the text. The novel ’In Two Minds’ was written to show how the grammatical and rhetorical resources offered by the narrative ’you’ are able build and maintain such cover and at the same time address the reader, express a particular aspect of the fictional protagonist, create strong characters and sustain the story of which it is the intradiegetic narratee. ’A Singular Voice’ is of interest to narratologists, authors and students of literature, creative writing, social and cultural studies, neuroscience, analytical psychology and psychoanalysis.
