Gone Girl: The Archive

Before we get back into books, let me do an archive for my “Gone Girl” pieces. Around the movie came out I did some “Meddler” posts where I attempted to fix some plot holes in the book and movie:

• Gone Girl Meddler Week, Part 1: Where the Movie Blows It
• The Meddler: Gone Girl (Book and Movie), Part 2: Amy’s Nonsensical Plan
• The Meddler: Gone Girl (Book and Movie), Part 3: The Three Big Pregnancy Problems

Later I did a post about using different voices, and used a still from the movie to illustrate it, but didn’t really examine the book or movie at the time:

• Storyteller’s Rulebook: If You're Going to Switch Voices, Make Sure to Switch Voices

Finally, I did an Annotation Project breakdown of the first ten pages, followed by some follow-up posts, including two more in-depth pieces about different voices:

• The Annotation Project: Gone Girl
• Rulebook Casefile: Different POVs with Different Voices in “Gone Girl”
• Storyteller's Rulebook: Coin Unique Similes
• Straying from the Party Line: The Unreliable Narrator Fake-Out in “Gone Girl”
• Straying from the Party Line: Starting in Their Heads Instead of With Dialogue in “Gone Girl”
