Stories about objects
- In the 18th-century, dozens of writers took to a new form of fiction that focused on ordinary things – coins, banknotes, shoes, carriages, dolls.
- These stories brought things to life, granting them their own voices.
- Today literary scholars call them “object-narratives” or “it-narratives”, so named after their inanimate protagonists.
