Abstract:Action is time-based.Postmodern writers are breaking the action whicli is complete and of a certain magnitude at the same time as they are breaking time.In Dictionary of the Khazars, the action of compiling the Dictionary of the Khazars is breaking via language, devil and death. While in Pedro Paramo, the action of Juan' s seeking his father is broken through defuncts' descriptions and scenes' divisions.All of these actions which are broken will be pieced to~ether after readers' reading.
