摘 要: | In Herzog, Saul Bellow employs an omniscient narrator and a character -narrator, Herzog.Though the story mainly revealed from Herzog ’ s stream of consciousness by using such techniques as interior monologue, free indirect thought and psycho -narration, Herzog is unreliable.The shift of different perspectives by using different personal pronouns (“he”,“you”,“I”) indicates a speaking self, inner voice and split selves of Herzog.In the end, Herzog overcomes his inner self and calms down in Ludeyville .The circular plot structure is one of the obvious features of the novel .
