Despite the significant amount of criticism that has been written about this remarkable period, there has been little systematic analysis of the literary and critical\/theoretical output to assist readers in navigating the complex web of critical pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Cambridge Companion to 21st Century American Fiction goes beyond simply ensuring broad coverage of numerous essential texts by providing state-of-the-art analyses of contemporary narrative studies that shape the parameters of current and future research and teaching. Each chapter illuminates critical engagements with emerging genres and concepts, including flash fiction, speculative fiction, digital fiction, alternative temporalities, Afro-futurism, ecocriticism, transgender\/queer studies, anti-carceral fiction, precarity, and post-9\/11 fiction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive guide offers a valuable resource for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of 21st-century American literature, providing a comprehensive and insightful exploration of this dynamic and evolving field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 520g \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 230 x 23 (mm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108978705\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094855086330,"sku":"9781108978705","price":23.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/cambridge-companion-to-twenty-first-century-american-fiction","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
