Book excerpt: Sauer (English, Brock U.) examines the relative status and authority of the multiple narrative voices in Milton's Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained and argues that his epics accommodate a variety of interpretive voices, episodes, and dramatic and discursive exchanges that resist the monological containment of the poems' dominant narratives. She investigates the texts' discursive practices and the politics of their orchestration of voice, showing how the poems spoke to their own time and how they might speak to ours.
