Abstract

This essay seeks to demonstrate how "Everett's Hypernarrator"—theorized and articulated by Judith Roof in 2013 in relation to his later novels—speaks through, across, and outside his stories' physical texts. Everett's stories are a salve to the rhizomatic limitations that inhibited hypertextual narrative, to the point of hypertextuality losing popular attention, insofar as the stories enact planes of association qua informational quanta, though located in the physical text; "open up" the text to the reader for co-constitutive processes of meaning-making; and provide a model for the sort of boundary-conscious, inconclusive, and inclusive storytelling that hypertextuality theoretically reached toward.
