This article examines the interrelated concepts of self-representation in personal narratives and the production of nonunitary subjectivity as a site of interpretation in qualitative research. Through close interpretations of narrative data, I analyze how subjectivity is manifested in narratives. I conclude both that nonunitary self-representation subverts humanist and patriarchal modes of discourse and that the act of narrating a nonunitary self allows forgreater self-knowledge to begained by respondents.
