The Cambridge Introduction to Contemporary American Fiction
explores fiction written over the last thirty years in the context
of the profound political, historical, and cultural changes that
have distinguished the contemporary period. Focusing on both
established and emerging writers - and with chapters devoted to the
American historical novel, regional realism, the American political
novel, the end of the Cold War and globalization, 9/11, borderlands
and border identities, race, and the legacy of postmodern
aesthetics - this Introduction locates contemporary American
fiction at the intersection of a specific time and long-standing
traditions. In the process, it investigates the entire concept of
what constitutes an "American" author while exploring the vexed,
yet resilient, nature of what the concept of home has come to
signify in so much writing today. This wide-ranging study will be
invaluable to students, instructors, and general readers alike.
