Abstract
The reason is that both of the methods assist in addressing the repressed experiences of individuals who both mentally and verbally troubled by WWI. Barker expresses her scepticism and protest against the modern sense of order and enlightenment ideas. She experiments with unconventional literary devices and narrative styles that subvert the linear narratives that reflect the experiences of those officers. The role of Rivers is to reflect on their experiences and assist them in reshaping their fragmented stories. This research investigates the nature of the relationship between fiction and healing PTSD. It also aims at highlighting techniques that demonstrate that relationship.
