will present Chance and Unpredictable Events in the Postmodern Sea Novel
Abstract
In the present study we demonstrate that William Golding’s novels forming the sea trilogy To the Ends of the Earth represent examples of postmodern sea fictions which deal with the constant rethinking of the narrative through a subversive repetition of motifs rooted in the tradition of the picaresque, the Bildungsroman and the travel novels.
