This book argues that the history of literary modernism is
inextricably connected with naturalism. Simon Joyce traces a
complex response among aesthetes to the work of Emile Zola at the
turn of the century, recovering naturalism's assumed compatibility
with impressionism as a central cause of their ambivalence.
Highlighting a little-studied strain of reflexive naturalism in
which Zola's mode of analytical observation is turned upon the
authors themselves, Joyce suggests that the confluence of
naturalism and impressionism formed the precondition for so-called
stream-of-consciousness writing. This style served to influence not
only the work of canonical modernists such as Joyce and Woolf, but
also that of lesser-known writers such as George Moore, Sarah
Grand, and George Egerton.
