The characters in the novel serve as one of the mediums in the interaction between the reader and the text. The novelist guides the readers to understand people in the novel through the operation of the paper figures in the text. This study applies Vincent Jouve’s theory of "character effects" in reading Queneau’s novel Blue Flowers to explore the features of sleepwalking figures in the novel, and to analyze, from the three functions of the characters—seen as a real person, as a paper figure, and as a pretext between the author and the reader, how Queneau use devices to establish the mode of interaction with readers. |
