Moving beyond a survey approach, this collection explores British
fiction's place among the cultural shifts and headline events of
four distinctive decades. From the collapse of communism, through
the rise of Thatcher to the shifts in global power, each volume
evaluates the impact of social, cultural and political history on
the fiction of the respective period. Breaking British fiction into
its four constituent decades, the 1970s, the 1980s, the 1990s and
the 2000s and using social, cultural and political contexts to
understand its chronology means changing literary themes are
properly accounted for and traditional readings opened up.
Alongside the national reception, the series looks closely at how
British fiction has been received internationally. Approaching the
subject from the perspective of its disciplinary formation, The
Decades Series is a crucial reference point for the progressive
development of contemporary British fiction, not only a literary
and cultural phenomenon, but as an academic field.
