Description

Explore how modernist writers from Henry James to Jean Rhys transformed travel into profound narrative journeys. This scholarly work examines fictional travelers negotiating quest, expatriation, displacement and exile as models for their own experiences. Through close readings spanning Virginia Woolf to W. E. B. Du Bois, the book investigates the ethical dimensions of modernist travel literature from two distinct perspectives. It argues that secular travel narratives are haunted by a desire for spiritual transcendence, revealing the complex relationship between the secular and the sacred in early twentieth-century fiction. Part of the Routledge Studies in Twentieth-Century Literature series, this volume offers literary scholars and students critical insights into how modernist authors used travel as both physical journey and metaphorical exploration of identity, belonging and transformation.
