adam_text | The widespread use of electronic communication at the dawn of the
twenty-first century has created a global context for our interactions,
transforming the ways we relate to the world and to one another. This
critical introduction reads the fiction of the past decade as a response to our
contemporary predicament
-
one that draws on new cultural and technological
developments to challenge established notions of democracy, humanity and
national and global sovereignty. Peter
Boxali
traces formal and thematic simi¬
larities in the novels of contemporary writers including Don DeLillo, Margaret
Atwood, J. M. Coetzee,
Marilynne
Robinson, Cormac McCarthy, W. G. Sebald and
Philip Roth, as well as David Mitchell, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dave Eggers,
Ali
Smith, Amy Waldman and Roberto
Bolaño.
In doing so,
Boxali
maps new
territory for scholars, students and interested readers of today s literature by
exploring how these authors narrate shared cultural life in the new century.
