abstract="If &quot;narrative&quot; implies a form of discourse in which sequenced events are meaningfully connected, an &quot;anti-narrative&quot; is a chaotic discourse form &quot;of time without sequence, telling without mediation, and speaking about oneself without being fully able to reflect on oneself&quot; (Frank 1995: 98). This paper examines narratives and anti-narratives in the oral discourses of survivors of the Cambodian killing fields. Through an extended analysis of two cases, we demonstrate the internal logic and &quot;eloquence&quot; of anti-narratives--i.e., the ways in which anti-narrative patterns vividly express and reveal a survivor's complex and continuing experience of atrocity.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
