Resume	This paper explores the distinctive features of the stream-of-consciousness mode in Darmani‟s first novel Grief Child with a view to uncovering the ideological inclination of the main focaliser and the narrator and/or the writer. It draws on the process-type taxonomy proposed by Halliday and Matthiessen (2004) to analyse three dream-depicting extracts and comes to the conclusion that the outer-experience processes that are generally held to hold the lion‟s share in transitivity analyses are suspended in this mode of discourse while those of inner experience occur dominantly. Not only does this result in the dominance of the cognitive and psychological facets of focalisation over the perceptual and ideological ones, but it also helps the writer/narrator to use the spiritual life of the characters as the determinant of the physical one
