Catching Time: Temporality, Interaction, and Cognition in the Novel

Catching Time updates our theories of narrative time, providing the first book-length study of enactive time in narrative. It proposes a new method for the analysis of narrative time which takes into account the fact that time is produced through our bodies in action and interaction with the surrounding world.
