Overview
An unreliable narrator is a literary device used to convey a story through a narrator who cannot be trusted, often adding complexity and depth to the narrative. This technique has been employed by authors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, J.D. Salinger, and Donna Tartt, and has been analyzed by literary critics like Wayne C. Booth and James Phelan. The use of unreliable narrators can create a sense of tension and suspense, as seen in films like 'Fight Club' and 'Gone Girl', directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt and Rosamund Pike.
