- Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present an original literary analysis from the perspective of both a common, intuitive reader, and a knowledgeable reader, with an academic research background in Swift’s works, of Swift’s short story Bruises, published in 2023 in The New Yorker. Bruises can be considered a very good example of short story and of fictional universe specific to and familiar for readers with Swift’s work yet, at the same time, still surprising and challenging expectations, as well as the story pattern he creates himself in other works. The main aspect lies in the use of the keywords, which are meaningful words, from where free associations and various connotations can be started. The short story becomes, thus, able to maintain the readers’ interest through its special, unusual construction based on what the author of the present paper has called keywords.
