Blanche in A Streetcar Named Desire is guilt-ridden, pathological, sensitive, and alienated from the mainstream society. Based on the narrative communication model, a hypothetical reading experiment is conducted to trace the narrative rhetoric imbued with tensions and instabilities. The distance between readers and Blanche is shortened, and Blanche＇ s plight arouses readers＇ cognitive and emotional responses. The deep structure of the narrative suggests the potential means for Blanche to avoid the doomed fate. Hence, the cogency of the narrative discourse of Blanche＇ s plight is realized.
