Document Summary
A detective novel is being obvious about it, but any narrative is always both helping you to and hindering you from solving the story. Reading a narrative means gathering clues and figuring out the story: understanding the meaning. We get two answers: answers at the level of expectations (concerns about form, answers at the level of questions (concerns about plot) Dip in arc and how long it lasts is crucial. Form matters (short story vs. novel vs. movie vs. tv) Bulstrode"s climax matters causes other characters" story climax. Much of what is ultimately important (character, description, etc. ) is important because it is relative. With more info, the situation changes so you revise (you change your mind) Constituent elements are necessary to the plot. If you take these elements out, the plot doesn"t work. Supplementary elements are incidental, but they add flesh to the story: truly make a story what it is (to make it a unique story)
