Description

Explore the complex landscape of contemporary literature with Realism and Power (Routledge Revivals): Postmodern British Fiction. This scholarly study examines how British postmodernist fiction uses subversive techniques to challenge established realist traditions and the liberal humanist ideology that supports them. Author Alison Lee investigates the concept of literary postmodernism by analyzing specific strategies and philosophies found in significant contemporary British novels. The text provides a deep look into works such as Midnight's Children, Waterland, Flaubert's Parrot, and Lanark. Beyond pure literature, this book places postmodernism in a broader context. It examines the movement's relationship to history, the performing and visual arts, and popular culture, including the influence of advertising. This Routledge Revival edition brings this essential academic study back to readers interested in literary theory and the evolution of modern British fiction.
