Summary

This topic returns to a class reader (following Themes 2.4, 4.4, 7.4) with a specific focus: sequence -- the order events happen in, and specifically what marks a story's climax, the point of highest tension the sequence builds toward. Understanding sequence is what lets you explain not just what happened, but how the story's events connect to and build on each other.
