It considers established writers, including Muriel Spark, Sarah Waters and Kazuo Ishiguro, as well as newer voices, such as Liz Jensen and Peter Ho Davies. The examination of the after-effects of involvement in secret work, inter-generational secrets in a domestic context, political allegiance and sexuality shows how issues of loyalty, deception and betrayal are brought into focus in these novels.Key FeaturesBreaks new ground in considering the Second World War in contemporary cultureContributes to debate on established novelists such as Muriel SparkIntervenes in ongoing debates about historical fiction |
