Exploration in Digital Literature

Reader immersed as a tourist through flowing memorable narrative

According to J.R. Carpenter, the narrative aspect of this work was designed in a very structured way. In J.R. Carpenter's words, the narrative starts with the template "take the [ ] and continue [ ]." An example of her work using this common structure is the sentence "take the path leading down the hillside just before the monument and continue along the High Street to the old parish church set in a green graveyard"("Walks from City Bus Routes: A Circuitous Route"). Referring to how J.R. Carpenter approached this narrative simplifies the work and gives the narrative a memorable rhythm when reading through it. Additionally, this strict guideline of writing the literary aspect of the work opens the idea that both as readers and indirect tourists, we all use a very structured way to understand the new places around us, whether starting with the pictures then reading the description or vice versa.
