Narrative Pleasures in Young Adult Novels, Films and Video Games (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

Stories are told today through many formats and young interpreters bring multimedia experience to bear on every narrative format they encounter. In this book, twelve young people read a novel, watch a film and play a video game from beginning to end. Their responses inform a new framework of contemporary themes of narrative comprehension.
