How did social, cultural and political events in Britain during and
leading up to the 1960s shape modern British fiction? The 1960s
were the "swinging decade": a newly energised youth culture went
hand-in-hand with new technologies, expanding educational
opportunities, new social attitudes and profound political
differences between the generations. This volume explores the ways
in which these apparently seismic changes were reflected in British
fiction of the decade. Chapters cover feminist writing that fused
the personal and the political, gay, lesbian and immigrant voices
and the work of visionary experimental and science fiction writers.
A major critical re-evaluation of the decade, this volume covers
such writers as J.G. Ballard, Anthony Burgess, A.S. Byatt, Angela
Carter, John Fowles, Christopher Isherwood, Doris Lessing, Michael
Moorcock and V.S. Naipaul.
