Tom Foster is Professor of English at the University of Michigan, Flint, where he teaches classes in contemporary fiction, drama and poetry as well as creative writing and composition. He has written several books on twentieth-century British and Irish literature and poetry and lives in East Lansing, Michigan.
Of all the literary forms, the novel is arguably the most discussed . . . and fretted over. From Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote to the works of Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, and today's masters, the novel has grown with and adapted to changing societies and technologies, mixing tradition and innovation in every age throughout history.
Thomas C. Foster—the sage and scholar who ingeniously led readers through the fascinating symbolic codes of great literature in his first book, How to Read Literature Like a Professor—now examines the grammar of the popular novel. Exploring how authors' choices about structure—point of view, narrative voice, first page, chapter construction, character emblems, and narrative (dis)continuity—create meaning and a special literary language, How to Read Novels Like a Professor shares the keys to this language with readers who want to get more insight, more understanding, and more pleasure from their reading.

评分第一条法则即“开篇法则”是这么说的:一部小说的第一页就能告诉你关于这部小说的18件事:文体、强调、情绪、措词、视角、叙述的在场、叙述的态度、时间框架、时间的掌控、地点、母题、主题、嘲讽、节奏、步速、期望、人物、导读。 《飞狐外传》在金庸小说中名气不算大,口碑也...
评分开始时在读台版书《……23堂……》,读着读着发现其实有大陆版,就读了后者。 反复重申“小说是用词语建造的房子。”究竟用意如何? 暂时没有录完,后面的扫了几眼,没有细看,是阅读的老毛病了。 爱尔兰史诗《夺牛长征记》(《夺牛征战记》(Tain Bo Cuailgne)是以爱尔兰北部...

评分笔调很可爱,读书时会笑起来的文学理论入门。有的例子没读过,有部分甚至完全没听说过【捂脸。虽然标题说like a prof. 但事实上也常聚焦于阅读体验,很多处get梗的开心,让我想把常书中提到我却没读过的几本补起来。 作者是John Fowles的真爱,提到侦探小说时混合着嘲讽和自豪【?的语调也超可爱
