The paper begins by briefly discussing J. Hillis Miller's critical essay, "Aristotle's Oedipus Complex," and then, loosely applying Miller's methodology, moves on to compare two plays: Luigi Pirandello's Six Characters in Search of an Author and Catherine Chou's Family Album: A Play about Falling. It is hoped that through the comparison the ever changing strategies of narration in drama will be foregrounded. As is well put by Miller, "all logocentric texts contain their own undermining counterargument, their own deconstruction woven into them." On the surface, Oedipus the King seems to emphasize the force of reason in finding the truth about human affairs, but the very premise of the play is in fact based on the irrationality of the gods. Similarly, Six Characters in Search of an Author ostensibly preaches for the multiplicity of reality and human nature, and yet the preaching itself is conducted in a rather monologic manner. By contrast, Family Album: A Play about Falling, by using postmodern techniques of metatheatre, touches upon the politics of narration and, throughout the process of storytelling, constantly confronts the audience with the eternal question about reconstructing past events: how shall I relate?
