The Novel in England, 1900-1950: History and Theory (Twayne's Critical History of the Novel)
By Unknown Author.
Description
In one corner is modernist fiction, in which English fiction played a key generative role; in the other are pugnacious postmodernist critics. Caserio (English, Temple U.) counters--on the basis of new readings of Conrad, Lawrence, Woolf, Greene, et al.--that negative critiques do not do justice to the English novel's significance in the first half of the 20th century, centering instead on the impact of chance on human affairs and gender-coded liberating fiction.
