This volume offers an authoritative, comprehensive, and accessible guide to the American fiction of this remarkable period. It traces the development of postmodern American fiction over the past half-century and explores its key aesthetic, cultural, and political contexts. It examines its principal styles and genres, from the early experiments with metafiction to the most recent developments, such as the graphic novel and digital fiction, and offers concise, compelling readings of many of its major works. An indispensable resource for students, scholars, and the general reader, the Companion both highlights the extraordinary achievements of postmodern American fiction and provides illuminating critical frameworks for understanding it"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000808828 650_0 $$aAmerican fiction$$y20th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000808828 650_0 $$aAmerican fiction$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 000808828 650_0 $$aPostmodernism (Literature)$$zUnited States. 000808828 7001_ $$aGeyh, Paula,$$eeditor,$$eauthor. 000808828 830_0 $$aCambridge companions to topics. 000808828 85200 $$bgen$$hPS374.P64$$iC36$$i2017 000808828 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:808828$$pGLOBAL_SET 000808828 980__ $$aBIB 000808828 980__ $$aBOOK
