Abstract
This paper looks at two highly prevalent actions in naturally-occurring talk: stance-taking and
storytelling. Stance-taking and storytelling have been shown to co-occur often (e.g. Siromaa,
2012), and this is especially the case in reading group talk, a discursive environment in which
speakers are engaged in the joint enterprise of assessing the meaning and quality of a shared
object: a written narrative text (e.g. a novel). Insights from conversation analysis and dialogic
syntax are used to analyse interactional data from several reading group meetings, with a
focus on the types of storytelling that are found in this talk, the relationship between the
various stories told in sequence in the talk - including the relationship between the written
narrative text and the spoken narratives, and the ways in which stance-taking and storytelling
are intertwined.
