Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Island of Surprise My Dear Commodore: Doubtless you have not forgot the many conversations we had over this story, and especially that last one when we sat dis cussing it until two o'clock in the morning one winter night before the big log fire in your library, when we finally worked out the climax together, I being at the receiving end. We two are the only ones who know how much the story owes to you. I do not propose to communicate to the world any details of that debt, but I cannot refrain from acknowledging it, and as the handsomest way of doing it I take advantage of the opportunity to dedicate to you my book in which there is so much of your own suggestion.

Download or read book Elements of Surprise written by Vera Tobin and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elements of Surprise opens with an novel but narrow focus: how a particular cognitive bias, the "curse of knowledge," underwrites stories that rely on what it calls "well-made surprise," as seen in (for example) classic detective fiction--that is, surprises in novels, films, television, and plays that set us up to be fooled in ways we find pleasing and satisfying. But from there, the book expands its reach. At its core, "cursed" thinking underlies almost everything people write, say, and think about both other people and our own pasts. The more information we have about something, and the more experience we have with it, the harder it is to step outside that experience. What unfolds is both a fresh approach to mental heuristics and biases and an ambitious work of cognitive literary criticism. Elements of Surprise provides a new and exciting way of thinking about the mechanics of narrative, explored through thoughtful readings of classic, popular, and obscure texts.--
