George Saunders constructs dual narrative progression in his short story My Chivalric Fiasco.The covert progression,as an ideological track parallel to the development of the plot,provides a dichotomous framework of"play(life)-play within a play(work)"and the embedded dichotomous framework of"false self-true self",at the same time,the third dimension is expanded to complement the two-way interaction between the"false self"and the"true self".The dichotomous framework in the covert progression provides a contrasting frame of reference for the development of the plot,and reveals the universal state of human existence in modern society from a broader perspective.
