خط فهرست نويسي و خط اصلي شناسه

In the last thirty years, major changes have taken place in literature. Reflecting the social, cultural, political, and psychological landscape of the twentieth century, British fiction has undergone a transformation; unearthing new writers, new genres, and new ideas. "The Novel Now" is an accessible and thorough account of the state of contemporary British fiction, from 1970 to present day. This book examines both emerging and celebrated authors, considering the work of rising literary stars and weighing their merit against more established authors. Through comparative assessment and reflection, the author takes a determined look at where literature has been, and where it is going. Incorporating coverage of sub genres such as "chick lit", "lad lit", crime fiction and the historical novel, this volume also examines the ways in which gender, sexuality, and sexual orientation have been addressed in fiction over the past three decades. Perfect for those who read with an analytical eye, as well as readers looking to understand and delight in a good narrative, "The Novel Now" is an intelligent and engaging survey of contemporary British fiction.
