Reviews
Narration as Argument is an excellent and informative book that can spur trans-disciplinary conversations with scholars in Black studies, Marxist and feminist theories, literary studies, and media studies, just to name a few. (Charles Athanasopoulos, Argumentation and Advocacy, Vol. 56 (3), 2020) It seems clear that Paula Olmos has succeeded in her aim of exhibiting the wide range of approaches to the relation between narration and argument, given the variety of approaches to narration as argument exhibited in these twelve chapters. ... She has reserved a table for everyone and bade them sit down side by side, in the hope that they will all begin to talk to one another. It's a start. (J. Anthony Blair, Argumentation, Vol. 33, 2019)
