Review Quotes: "Helpful and informative for readers, writers, and critics ... Fictionality and Literature is a complete compendium of knowledge, a collection of essays that only propels rhetorical fictionality theory into the future of both analytical and creative composition. The next time I sit down to write fiction, I'll keep this volume in mind--I won't be able to help it." --Alex Crayon, Journal of the Midwest Modern Language Association
