| Summary: | Report from the Interior by Paul Auster is an autobiographical narrative told in the 2nd person. This essay focuses, from a linguistic and psycholinguistic perspective, on the title itself, Report from the Interior, as bearing the trace of a conflict, which is reflected in the use of the 2nd person. The term interior seems indeed to announce a 1st person narrative whereas the word report supposes the use of the 2nd or the 3rd person. It is to this linguistic hiatus and its interpretation that this study is devoted. |
