Second Person Narrative

You’re standing in the book store, flipping through some books, when the thought hits you: Why isn’t there more fiction with a second person narrative? Plenty of “I”s, plenty of “he”s and “she”s, not a “you” in sight. Intrigued, you leave the store.

Back home, you fire up your computer, hit the internet and search. Wikipedia yields few answers. You skim articles like this, but it bores you.

Then you get it. Why would you want someone else to tell you what to think and feel? You vow to never let anyone do that. Ever.
