THE ART OF INTERIOR MONOLOGUE IN LITERARY TEXTS
Keywords:
interior monologue, literary text, steam of consciousness, narrative technique, authenticity, emotional depthAbstract
This article explores interior monologue, a narrative technique in literary texts that provides direct access to a character's unfiltered thoughts and emotions. Through the use of fragmented syntax and stream-of-consciousness style, interior monologue enhances psychological depth, immerses readers in characters' subjective experiences, and creates a sense of authenticity. Examples from Virginia Woolf's "Mrs. Dalloway" and James Joyce's "Ulysses" demonstrate the power of interior monologue in conveying emotion, immersing readers in characters' minds, and exploring complex themes.
