My account is grounded in cognitive stylistics and consequently, the chapter also advances knowledge about readerly interpretation of autofiction and autonarrational devices. Ultimately, this chapter breaks new ground for the study of autofiction in English by providing a replicable, text-driven account of the linguistic style and narrative voice of autofiction. Following this, the analysis of 10:04 considers, in turn, first-person and third-person (auto-)narration, second-person address, and the impact of intertextuality on the referential value of pronouns.
The novel is contextualised in relation to Genette’s judgement of autofiction and Lejeune’s tabular mapping of fiction and autobiography, leading to the development of a cognitive-stylistic model of autofiction. Focusing on Ben Lerner’s 10:04, this chapter investigates the stylistic composition of autofiction, with particular emphasis on pronoun usage.
