Reviews

""Charles Andrews's fascinating account of modernist fiction and the 'theopolitical imagination' offers a distinctively new and exciting approach to the cultural and literary history of modernism. Through an introduction and four chapters dedicated to four non-religious novelists, it maps a set of complex and fascinating responses to the role of Christianity in the formation and consolidation of English nationhood. Superbly argued and impressively attuned to the nuances of literary and political discourse, the book is a vital addition to the literature on modernism and religion and the first to recognise the modernist novel as a key site of resistance to the Christian nation-state."" --Suzanne Hobson, Professor of Twentieth-Century Literature, Queen Mary University of London, UK
