Victory Garden



This figure shows the organizational map of Stuart Moulthrop's novel Victory Garden (1991). This map represents only the upper layer of the textual architecture: "each named site on the map stands for a region of the text with its own finely grained system of links, and it would be necessary to zoom in to a larger-scale image to get a full view of the textual architecture. The configuration of the map of Victory Garden is what theorists would call a network, or unrestricted graph."

One of the software available online to create hypertextual architectures is Storyspace, a hypertext writing environment that is especially well suited to large, complex, and challenging hypertexts. Storyspace focuses on the process of writing, making.
