Resumen
Unnatural narratologists defend the pervasiveness of unnatural elements in literature and complain about the mimetic bias that classical narratology shows towards conventional realist texts. This paper will explain why unnatural elements are so significant in the eyes of unnatural theorists and how these theorists approach unnatural phenomena in fiction. Especial attention will be given to some sense-making strategies that readers allegedly use to deal with impossible scenarios in fiction. In this regard, it will be contended that Danielewski’s House of Leaves is an extreme case of unnatural narrative; and in the process, the above-mentioned reading strategies will be put to test.
