About the Book

Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, University of Al-Qadisiyah, language: English, abstract: This thesis deals with intertextuality in Ian McEwan's novels. The aim of this study is to show how McEwan uses intertextuality and how this technique is used to develop the themes, characters, and narration of his novels.
