Does the novel have a future? Questions of this kind, which are as
old as the novel itself, acquired a fresh urgency at the end of the
twentieth-century with the rise of new media and the relegation of
literature to the margins of American culture. As a result,
anxieties about readership, cultural authority and literary value
have come to preoccupy a second generation of postmodern novelists.
Through close analysis of several major novels of the past decade,
including works by Don DeLillo, Philip Roth, Kathryn Davis,
Jonathan Franzen and Richard Powers, Late Postmodernism examines
the forces shaping contemporary literature and the remarkable
strategies American writers have adopted to make sense of their
place in culture.
