Focusing on the intersection of sociology and literature, this book examines how sociologists employ literary and rhetorical techniques to present their findings compellingly. By analyzing various sociological texts through the lens of contemporary social theory, the author reveals the construction of arguments and offers fresh insights into the conventions of realism and factual representation. The exploration highlights the persuasive strategies used to validate sociological accounts, enriching the understanding of both disciplines.
