A person reading a book needs to gain insights based on the text. In most books, stories, themes, and references are organized structurally and purposefully. In previous work, we presented the design of an e-Book user interface that reveals the multi-structural information to support reading for comprehension[1]. In this paper, we describe techniques for discovering and representing the narrative structure of e-Books, and describe the user interface components for revealing this narrative structure to readers. We chose e-Bible as our corpus and named our user interface "iSee", meaning that "I see what I read".
