Argues for a rethinking of the standard account of narrative unreliability. Works can be unreliable in many ways, and unreliable works do not, the author claims, always have unreliable narrators. Narrative theory needs to focus more on unreliable works, less on unreliable narrators. As an example of this, the author uses Ford's The Searchers.
