      abstract = {This book presents an extended account of the language of  dystopia, exploring the creativity and style of dystopian  narratives and mapping the development of the genre from  its early origins through to contemporary practice. Drawing  upon stylistic, cognitive-poetic and narratological  approaches, the work proposes a stylistic profile of  dystopia, arguing for a reader-led discussion of genre that  takes into account reader subjectivity and personal  conceptualisations of prototypicality. In examining and  identifying those aspects of language that characterise  dystopian narratives and the experience of reading  dystopian fictions, the work discusses in particular the  manipulation and construction of dystopian languages, the  conceptualisation of dystopian worlds, the reading of  dystopian minds, the projection of dystopian ethics, the  unreliability of dystopian refraction, and the evolution  and hybridity of the dystopian genre. Jessica Norledge is  part of the Applied English Team at the University of  Nottingham, UK, where she teaches across Literary  Linguistics and Applied Linguistics. She specialises in the  cognitive poetics of emotion and the language of dystopia,  having published on the dystopian short story, dystopian  epistolary, dystopian minds, and the experience of reading  dystopian fiction.},
