At least, when it's explained in a chunk of text whose primary or entire purpose is to explain backstory. But, yes, I'd say that it can be both narrative summary and exposition. Well, though my mind quibbles about whether "narrative summary" can apply to events that begin before the story. Hmm.
The conclusion of a story is the wrapping-up of the Climax. The climax of the story is a decision by the protagonist that either earns, or fails to earn her , her story goal. She does this by making a choice between the morally correct choice and the easiest, most physically rewarding choice.
Welcome to part 30 of my study on Clive Barker. Today, we will be looking at his short story 'Twilight at the Towers.' Summary: The story, set in Berlin during the Cold War, tells the story of Ballard and his dealings with KBG member named Mironenko. Ballard is a spy for London who is trying to get Mironenko to defect to Britain.
The story ends with someone patting Locke and his body beginning to bleed.-There are four great notes I took while reading this short story. 1. The story reminded me a lot of the movie 'Cannibal Holocaust.' This story is an exploitation story, a story about 'civilized' people taking advantage/mistreating the 'uncivilized' natives.
Summary: Human Remains tells the story of Gavin, a male prostitute that finds himself being stalked by a doppelganger. The story begins with him being picked up by a male client and taken back to an apartment. There he discovers a human-sized statue in the tub.

When I first tried to create the chapter outline, I ended up making 30 chapters within the first quarter of book and that was simply too much.
Summary: Hell's Event is story 8 in the Books of Blood. This is a fun story to read; it is about a race that is held every 100 years in London. The world's top athletes come to participate in what they believe is a charity event, but in secret, the event is to decide rather or not Hell shall get to rule London for 100 years, or if the country ...
Summary: In the Hills, the Cities tells the story of two gay men, Mick and Judd, as they make their way through the Yugoslavia countryside. The pair comes to discovery an ancient ritual that has gone horribly wrong; every ten years, two rivaling cities gather their citizens and construct massive giants, by strapping one person to the next, in ...
You can plot your main story on the timeline, and you can also plot the timelines for each character to trace their arcs (for those characters who have arcs).
