Afterlife
and Narrative
in Contemporary Fiction explores why life after death is such a
potent cultural concept today, and why it is such an attractive prospect for modern
fiction.The book mines a rich vein of imagined afterlives, from the temporal experi¬
ments of Martin Amis s Time s Arrow to narration from heaven in Alice Sebold s The
Lovely Bones. At the heart of the book is a focus on how the properties of the afterlife
have become a tool for examining the capacities and conventions of narrative fiction.
Modem novels carry the history of realism and its attempts to present life as it is, but
many of the techniques which achieve these effects require perspectives and positions
for narration that are profoundly un-lifelike. Each chapter of the book takes a fresh look
at problems in narrative theory, taking all its cues from experimental narratives set in
the afterlife, from avant-garde experimentation to popular genre fiction. Afterlife and
Narrative in Contemporary Fiction examines, applies and refines anti-mimetic theories
of fiction in readings of a group of texts which are after, but not in imitation of, life.
