A grumpy Kneasy stomps into the office.
He's been growing progressively pissed off reviewing 'Narrative style' 
and growing ever more convinced that there is no such thing *in 
isolation*. And if it  can't exist on its own merits why have it as a 
separate category? Why not let all the associated categories (see 
below) discuss aspects of 'Narrative style' as it refers to their more 
specific analysis? 'Cos there's damn few posts under this heading that 
isn't also coded under something more relevant.

Try discussing Narrative style in reference to HP without the inclusion 
of:

Characterisation
Genre
Authorial intent
Character POV
Stereotyping
etc.

You end up with a couple of posts complaining about the use of 
adjectives.

T'aint real. And if it ain't real why have it?

Kneasy strongly suspects that it's one of these arty-farty litcritter  
phrases that means bugger all. And he's looked at 319 posts to back his 
contention.
