Narrative is constituted by the reorganizations of events. The discourse time could not be equal to the story time, and the anachrony is an inevitable narrative mechanism. Analepsis corresponded to recollection is appropriate for the description of the arisen events, and prolepsis relative to prospection is suitable to describe the probable or possible occurrences. These two modes of narrative presentation would be applied to the double phases of factual representation and fictional fabrication. Metalepsis is another dimension of presentational mode that could be needed for the description of the virtual-real world. It is the optimum narrative device of the projection of the narrative space constituted in the critical and liminal district. With elaborate investigations of narrative metalepsis, we can acquire the clue for interpreting the diverse and extensive semantic networks of virtual-real narrative space. In this challenging essay I examine the theoretical potentialities and the applicable methodology of interpretation by reviewing a Seungwoo Lee’s novel. ■ key Words : metalepsis, narrative space, virtual-real, self-referential narrative, strange loop
