Assess students' ability to analyze and compare how James Joyce's Ulysses, Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway, and William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury deploy stream-of-consciousness and techniques of narrative unreliability. Tasks should require close reading of representative passages to examine narrative voice, focalization, temporality, syntax and diction (e.g., interior monologue, free indirect discourse, fragmentation), the construction of subjectivity, and the effect these strategies have on meaning and reader interpretation; responses should reference narratological or modernist theory to support comparative claims.
