Providing close readings of well-known British realist writers
including Pat Barker, A. S. Byatt, Rose Tremain, Sarah Hall,
Bernadine Evaristo and Zadie Smith, this book uses new directions
in material and posthuman feminism to examine how contemporary
women writers explore the challenges we collectively face today.
Walezak redresses negative assumptions about realism's alleged
conservatism and demonstrates the vitality and relevance of the
realist genre in experimenting with the connections between
individual and collective voices, human and non-human meditations,
local and global scales, and author and reader. Considering how
contemporary realist writing is attuned to pressing issues
including globalization, climate change, and interconnectivity,
this book provides innovative new ways of reading realism, examines
how these writers are looking to reinvent the genre, and shows how
realism helps reimagine our place in the world.
