Abstract

This article takes a short story The life You Save May Be Your Own as an experimental case to analyze deconstructive ideology of excavating the paradoxes and conflicts. Selecting this story is because of its canny design of the fusion of succinct plot and whimsical characters, elevating the possibility of exploiting a variety of divergent and even incompatible interpretation through closing reading. The reason this article pivots on the deployment of deconstruction is that deconstructive literary analysis challenges readers’ common sense of comprehending literature, taking issue with and revolutionizing the foundation of western philosophy and humanity.
