"The study of contemporary fiction has been growing in popularity for many years,
whether via its consistent place in the news and popular culture, the rapid expansion
of creative writing and contemporary literature programs at University level, or new
scholarly organizations dedicated to the contemporary. Taking up issues that remain
unclear concerning when 'contemporary' fiction begins, as well as how genre novels
-- thrillers, science fiction, etc. -- should be considered, chapters serve as both
an introduction to an area and a frame for further academic debate. A significant
and central intervention into the field of Contemporary Literature, this volume focuses
on fiction from the year 2000 and forward. Offering essential coverage of writers
who established themselves in the last millennium, the main focus will cover those
whose reputations have been forged in the last ten to fifteen years. Further, it will
focus on literary fiction, that is, novels which were traditionally called literary.
Over thirty essays by leading and emerging international scholars cover topics such
as: - Experimentalism, Science, Nature, Narrative, and the City - Authors such as
Jonathan Franzen, David Mitchell, Hari Kunzru, Ali Smith, Sarah Waters, and David
Eggers - Contemporary literature in different international contexts - Interviews
with contemporary authors or industry figures including Jonny Geller and Ben Markovits
Accessible to experts, students, and general readers, the Routledge Companion to Twenty-First
Century Literary Fiction provides a map of the critical issues central to the discipline,
as well as uncovers new perspectives and new directions for the development of the
field"
