A History of the Modernist Novel reassesses the modernist canon and
produces a wealth of new comparative analyses that radically revise
the novel's history. Drawing on American, English, Irish, Russian,
French, and German traditions, leading scholars challenge existing
attitudes about realism and modernism and draw new attention to
everyday life and everyday objects. In addition to its exploration
of new forms such as the modernist genre novel and experimental
historical novel, this book considers the novel in postcolonial,
transnational, and cosmopolitan contexts. A History of the
Modernist Novel also considers the novel's global reach while
suggesting that the epoch of modernism is not yet finished.
