The Modern British Novel

Viac o knihe

"Despite frequent reports in the press on the demise of the novel, this witty and stimulating book shows that, at the dawn of a new millennium, it continues to flourish. Malcolm Bradbury's study assesses the progress of the British novel from the end of the Victorian Age to the beginning of the twenty-first century, taking in major movements, literary giants and lesser-known authors, and commenting on the future of the book in our digital, postmodern age. This new edition of an essential work is completely revised with additional chapters, bringing it up to date to include contemporary names such as Louis de Bernieres, Pat Barker, Nick Hornby and Toby Litt."--BOOK JACKET
