Combining close readings of literature and theory, Sex, Time, and
Space in Contemporary Fiction opens up new ways to consider the
sex-time-space nexus. In an exciting and compelling contribution to
contemporary literary studies, this book takes the concept of
'exceptionality' as its point of departure as developed through an
exploration of Giorgio Agamben's theory of the state of exception
and the work of theorists including Jacques Derrida and Michel
Foucault. Through an analysis of a range of widely read
contemporary fiction, including On Chesil Beach, Gertrude and
Claudius, The Act of Love and Room, Ben Davies provides a rigorous
exploration of narrative form and offers original theories of the
prequel, narrative relations in terms of set theory, and the
practice of reading itself.
