This book is a sequel to 'The Deceptive Text: An Introduction to Covert Plots'. Critics said of that volume, 'Here is a rare book -- a study of fictional theory which is actually fun to read... We know of no other recent book quite like this one'; 'rich in ideas, stimulating, critically helpful...' 'Covert Plots: Yet More!' reveals hidden plots in works by Shakespeare, Wells, Kipling, Conrad, Forster, Golding, Backett and oters. This distinctive branch of narratology transforms (and sometimes subverts) our understanding of important works.
