| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/7966 Harrow : a collection of fiction Cilliers, Charles Irwin, Ron Creative Writing Includes bibliographical references. The subject matter of the two stories and one short novel in this dissertation, if one could call it that, vary widely. There are, however, overridig themes of fantasy and surrealism throughout, for each of the narratives ask of the reader to disengage from certain axioms of how the world works. The first story, The Other Ellis, deals with a character's struggle to come to terms with the possibiligy that he may be the only person hearing hidden messages in the music of a particular composer. He becomes convinced that the composer has a terrible secret. The major portion of work for this dissertation, Slumber, is a short novel that explores a science fiction theme, but is written in a style closer to suspense/horror. Once the first chaper closes, each successive chapter presents the reader with a different viewpoint character who wakes from frightful nightmares, which seem to have a primary antagonist: a murderer with eerie, unearthly power. 2014-10-02T13:16:05Z 2014-10-02T13:16:05Z 2004 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7966 eng application/pdf Department of English Language and Literature Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
