Аннотация

This article analyzes Susan Hill's masterful use of analepsis (flashbacks) in "I am the King of the Castle" and other short stories. The narrative technique reveals characters' psychological development, particularly in child protagonists, by illuminating formative experiences, trauma, and school memories. Hill employs flashbacks to explore themes of power dynamics, bullying, and loss of innocence.
