بنية الخطاب السردي في رواية : (ساق البامبو)‎

Abstract EN

Saq al-Bamboo, a novel written by Saud al-San’ousi, is considered a highly artistic work representing literature of the Gulf.

It is distinguished by its storytelling techniques and novelty of narrative discourse which make it a suitable work for study.

Previous critical studies of the novel focused on its content, especially the theme of social values as seen in the conservative Gulf society which rejects double identity.

Thus, this paper will not tackle content and themes; conversely, it will study narrative discourse through analyzing narrative manifestations, storytelling techniques and temporal structure.
