The strong narratology craze is now sweeping across China. However, narratology is a theoretically difficult subject, and not many people in China are truly familiar with this subject. The original purpose of narratology is to help people better understand narrative phenomena, but some classic narratologists arrogantly claim that structural analysis is not the "handmaiden of interpretation" and that "the purpose of narratology is to classify and describe." This is nothing more than imprisoning narratology in a tall ivory tower. Each section of "Interesting Narratology" uses a question as its title. The text is fresh and easy to understand. It changes some readers' impression that narratology is boring and strives to complete an interesting narrative that is simple and engaging.
