Scandalous Fictions: The Twentieth-Century Novel in the Public Sphere

by Susan Watkins and Jago Morrison

No Customer Reviews

This study re-examines the twentieth-century novel as a form shaped by its problematic, often scandalous relation to the public sphere. Discussing ten texts against the challenges of their milieus, it considers twentieth-century fiction as a tradition of transgression, perennially caught between license and licentiousness, erudition and sedition.
