This Companion offers a compelling engagement with British fiction
from the end of the Second World War to the present day. Since 1945,
British literature has served to mirror profound social, geopolitical
and environmental change. Written by a host of leading scholars, this
volume explores the myriad cultural movements and literary genres that
have affected the development of postwar British fiction, showing how
writers have given voice to matters of racial, regional and sexual
identity. Covering subjects from immigration and ecology to science
and globalism, this Companion draws on the latest critical innovations
to provide insights into the traditions shaping the literary landscape
of modern Britain, thus making it an essential resource for students
and specialists alike.
