This analysis of the literary qualities of orally performed art is based on a body of entertaining Texan narratives collected by the author over the last fifteen years. The author's main emphasis is on the act of storytelling, not just the text. He looks at the interrelationships between the narrated events, the narrative texts and the situations in which they are narrated.
