According to Gerard Genette's narrative theory, frequency has emerged as a technique of avant-garde novels in which narrating the narrative that happens frequently. Frequent thoughts and actions have an enormous impression on the characters that assist them in reaching their goal. It helps a reader to apprehend the particular situation of the characters. Additionally, Mieke Bal identified frequency as different events or alternative presentations of events that show similarities. In The Bonesetter's Daughter, the third-person narrator has informed that Ruth, the granddaughter desires to write her biography. She learns writing from her mother, LuLing, and LuLing has learned it from her mother, Precious Auntie. Thus, biography writing is the frequency transferred from the grandmother to the mother and then to the daughter. Inside this frequency, other frequencies exist that make the general form of fiction. The present research aims to express the significance of these frequencies that help the characters to understand their situations. She also attempts to investigate the plot of the fiction to answer why frequency is significant in light of Genette's and Mieke Bal's narrative theory.
