This book invites its own reader into a multifaceted exploration of the intriguing processes by wich readers' interpretations are shaped by narratorial commentary in Eliot's fiction. Introducing a new pair of narratological concepts, 'story-time now' and 'narration now', it elucidates the interplay between narrator and reader, creating fresh awareness of the subtleties of Eliot's craft.
