Modernist Approaches to English Fiction is an anthology of twenty-five articles exploring contemporary writing in English from the perspective of the recent changes in the approach of the novelists to ensure national and international visibility of their works. The articles in this volume persuasively argue that recent literary fiction has moved away through formal innovation. The book covers the discourse in a range of postmodern works that focus not only on plot or character development but also on meta reference to create a narrative assemblage for the reader. Among the contributors to this anthology, some are established critics and have many published works to their credit, the others are voracious readers and budding scholars. Scholars from Japan, Iran, and India have contributed their critical articles in this anthology. This book will be useful for graduate and post graduate students of English literature.
