Size: Hardcover
This book attempts to clarify the narrative conditions of humanism, asking how we can use stories to complicate our understanding of others, and questioning the ethics and efficacy of attempts to represent human social complexity in fiction.
With case studies of films like
Parenthood
(1989),
American Beauty
(1999),
Little Miss Sunshine
(2006) and
The Kids Are All Right
(2010), this original study synthesises leading discourses on media and cognition, evolutionary anthropology, literature and film analysis into a new theory of the storytelling instinct.
