Narrative construction forms the foundation upon which the artistic structure of a narrative text is built. It determines the method of telling the story and organizes the relationships between its components within a vision that frames the world and reshapes it linguistically and aesthetically. Through it, not only does meaning become apparent, but the features of the consciousness underlying the text crystallize, with its positions and reflections. When narrative construction intersects with the formation of discourse, the function of narrative expands beyond the story to produce deeper connotations that express the tension of thought, the multiplicity of visions, and the intermingling of textual levels. Narration is not separate from discourse; rather, it contributes to its formulation and direction through structural choices that influence the tone of the text, the paths of interpretation, and the horizon of reading. This research aims to study narrative construction in Mohamed Ragab's "The Yellow Sons" by analyzing the narrative components that constitute the narrative discourse and understanding how they are employed to reflect the complexities of humanity in the age of digital technology. The research relies on a descriptive-analytical approach, which allows for a careful examination of the text and an understanding of the novel's internal structure and how its discourse is shaped in light of intellectual and artistic contexts. The study demonstrated that the novel "The Yellow Sons" is characterized by an integrated narrative structure that reflects the complexities of humanity in the age of digital technology, through the interweaving of dimensions of reality, virtuality, and time. The characters embody different levels of consciousness and psychological conflict, and the plot develops across an overlapping timeline that reflects modern complexities. The setting varies between the physical and virtual to express states of alienation and belonging, and dialogue plays a central role in revealing internal tensions and existential questions related to identity and technology, making the narrative structure a dynamic space for a rich and multidimensional narrative discourse.
