This study approaches the fiction of the
1930s
through critical debates about genre, language and
history, setting these in their original context, and discussing the generic forms most favoured by
novelists at the time, through a series of case studies of texts which draw on, develop or explore
the boundaries, contemporary usefulness and complexities of particular prose genres. Generic
debates and the political-aesthetic effects of different kinds of representation were live issues as
discursive struggles and negotiations took place between modernist and realist modes, between
high, middle and lowbrow categorizations of culture, between literature and mass culture, and
between different conceptions of the role of the writer, politics and nationality, sexuality and
gender identities.
Chris Hopkins draws both on well-known texts and on novels which have only recently begun to
be discussed by critics of the
1930s —
particularly those by women writers whose work has still
not been related very clearly to the literary and political debates of the period. Organized in
five sections each focusing on major genres, he takes a wide range of novels as case studies and
discusses their uses of generic, forms, relating them to other examples and to their historical,
political and cultural contexts.
