Reviews
'[This] is an authoritative but accessible account of the inter-relationships between literary theory and the culture of fiction from the nineteen-seventies to the present day. Covering many of the landmark novels of the period, Michael Greaney also ranges over less familiar texts, by writers better known for their theoretical work such as Norman Holland and Julia Kristeva. With its refreshing and distinctive approach to the field, the book will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of the contemporary novel, as well as to lecturers and researchers in post- war literature.' - Dr. Jago Morrison, University of Chichester, UK
