Adventurous, engaging and politically urgent,
contemporary American novels have come to enjoy
a particular prestige and a global circulation. This
book provides a critical introduction to novels
produced in the United States between
1980
and
the present. Compact yet wide-ranging, it registers
the diversity of contemporary American fiction
and situates it in historical contexts that include
Reaganomics, the Clinton years and the War on
Terror . Detailed attention is given to how America s
novelists have responded to shifting gender politics,
changes in the nation s racial configuration, the
increasing dominance of a commodity culture, and
to adjustments in the United States place in the
world following the end of the Cold War and the era
of globalisation/With detailed lists of secondary
sources both in print and online, and suggestions
for students own research projects, this is the ideal
resource for anyone beginning study of American
literature today.
