In particular, it focuses on Martin Amis's novel \u003ci\u003eTime's Arrow\u003c\/i\u003e, where the breakdown of chronology, coherence and predictability mimics the collapse of temporality and the crisis of truth caused by trauma in the individual's mind. Amis's novel reproduces the shocking force of trauma through a shocking narrative form in order to avoid indifference and favour an empathetic and ethically committed reaction on the part of readers. For these reasons, \u003ci\u003eTime's Arrow\u003c\/i\u003e represents a significant example of trauma fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der W","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47891836600471,"sku":"9783631577967","price":2931.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783631577967.webp?v=1781184938","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/trauma-studies-and-literature-martin-amiss-times-arrow-as-trauma-fiction-9783631577967","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
