  • This paper examines one narrative aspect of Flann O'Brien's novel At Swim-Two-Birds (1939): the complex structure of narrative embeddings that has been built in the text. The underlying intention is to dismantle this structure in order to show the unstable and undecidable nature of a novel which seems to be as much interested in establishing a hierarchy and delimiting spaces and voices as in democratically erasing differences and bringing together what has already been set apart.
