Reviews

'Always historicize!' Fredric Jameson taught us, and Alexandra Lawrie does so compellingly in her account of a turn-of-the-millennium generation of US novelists who have themselves taken Jameson's lesson to heart. Sampling half a dozen or so representative writers, some of them familiar, others less so, Lawrie illuminates the contemporary art of fiction by adeptly interweaving attentive close reading with contextualizing historical information. --Brian McHale, The Ohio State University, Author of Postmodernist Fiction and The Cambridge Introduction to Postmodernism
