Crunch Lit, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The financial crisis of 2008 quickly gave rise to a growing body of fiction: "Crunch Lit".

These 'recession writings' take the financial crisis as their central narrative concern and explore its effects on consumer culture, gender roles and contemporary communities.

Examining a range of texts including Sebastian Faulks' A Week in December, Adam Haslett's Union Atlantic, and John Lanchester's Capital, this book offers the first wide-ranging guide to these new millennial writings.
