dc.description.abstractAcademics have struggled with defining unreliable narration even after Wayne C. Booth proposed a definition in 1961 that is still adhered to today. In order to provide more clarity, Ansgar Nünning devised a methodology for recognizing and defining unreliable narration in works of fiction. Using this proposed methodology, Agatha Christie’s 1929 The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and Sarah Waters’ 2009 The Little Stranger will be analysed in order to not only lend credibility to Nünning’s theory, but also to determine what function the unreliable narrator has in both works, and how both narrators differ from one another.en_US
