A Novel With An Unreliable Narrator
 A narrator is “unreliable” when we have reasons to doubt the versions of events he, she, or they is/are presenting to us as factual in a story. Whether it be for reasons of mental instability or self-preservation, we know the narrator isn’t disclosing everything to us or isn’t telling us the whole truth.
