Description

This scholarly work examines three twenty-first century novels by Richard Powers, Dave Eggers and Don DeLillo as representative examples of contemporary US fiction exploring technological augmentation of the human condition. The study analyses narrative strategies through dual perspectives: the optimistic transhumanist philosophy and the balanced approach of critical posthumanism. It provides comprehensive coverage of how these writers investigate biotechnology, digital technologies and cryonics as means to transcend human limitations, whilst examining the cautionary narratives and ethical concerns embedded within their literary explorations. Published by Routledge as part of the Perspectives on the Non-Human in Literature and Culture series, this book offers critical insight into how twenty-first century fiction engages with post-human enhancement and the philosophical implications of technological transcendence.
