In 1963 President John F. Kennedy was shot, Sylvia Plath published
"The Bell Jar" and the Beatles were in their prime. This was a
changing world, which British and Irish writers both contributed to
and reflected in drama, poetry and prose.;"The Routledge Guide to
Modern English Writing" tells the story of British and Irish
writing from 1963 to 2003. From the first performance of Tom
Stoppard's "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" in the 1960s to
lad novels and chick lit in the 21st century, the authors guide the
reader through the major writers, genres and developments in
English writing over those 40 years.;Providing an in-depth survey
of the main genres and extensive treatment of a wide range of
writers including Philip Larkin, Ted Hughes, Angela Carter,
Benjamin Zephaniah and Nick Hornby, this readable handbook also
offers notes on language issues, quotations from selected works, a
timeline and a guide to other works. Written by the authors of "The
Routledge History of Literature in English" (second edition 2001),
this is a guide for all readers of contemporary writing.
