Are prologues and epilogues common in novels?
In the 19th century novels epilogues were fairly common and could somethings go one for chapters as the readers back then really got involved with the characters and were honestly concerned how everybody ended up. The ending to the Lord of the Rings has a long drawn out epilogue. Prologues were never quite as popular, but did enjoy a period where they were acceptable. If you recall Saint Stephens defense against the Jewish elders you will know that he started right from the beginning of the world and worked his way up to the present before starting on his own defense. Now-a-days they are viewed with some disdain as being unnecessary and cumbersome. However they still do find occasional use. The opening scene to the movie Jurassic Park is a Prologue. The movies 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' and 'Indianna Jones: the Final Crusade' both have lengthy prologues.
