“Object-Oriented Narratology takes on a little-addressed yet crucial component of narratives: objects or things, not as part of some other function, but on their own merits. As such it helps us dig deeper into our reading of and immersion in storyworlds, and it creates a richer understanding of the objects that make up those worlds. It is clearly written and thought provoking.”—Annjeanette Wiese, author of Narrative Truthiness: The Logic of Complex Truth in Hybrid (Non)Fiction “The authors raise stimulating philosophical questions, situating narrative theory within a broader, interdisciplinary debate on the status of the object.”—Marco Caracciolo, author of Slow Narrative and Nonhuman Materialities
