Description
MY TITLE, "Telling Tales Out of School," is hard won. In coming up with it, what I had to resist was the tyranny of the colon--its insistence, as soon as you are within the academic orbit, upon inserting itself, demanding qualification of titles, of terms. As a novelist, there are other linguistic devices that impress themselves upon one in much the same way. In this title, for instance, it is the cliche. But my job, as a novelist, is actually to work against cliche, so perhaps my title really should have been: "Telling Tales Out of School: Caught between a Colon and a Cliche."
