A Carnivalesque Perspective of Graham Swift's Last Orders

Willis, Catherine Jane 07 January 2009 (has links)

Through the examination of Bakhtins theory of the carnivalesque and through a corresponding close reading of Last Orders, this article details the carnivalesque nature of the locations visited by the characters in the narrative, of the grotesque incidents that occur in these locations, and of the narrative style and structure of the novel itself.
