"'[An] insightful, perceptive and nuanced analysis.. the collection is a landmark in the critical analysis of current literary culture.' THES 'I was impressed by the range and conscientious skill of the critics... this collection discusses much of the best in contemporary British writing...' Sir Frank Kermode, formerly King Edward Professor of English at Cambridge 'An admirably ambitious attempt to map the contemporary literary scene, impressive both in the range and depth of its coverage. Certainly the sharpest and most up-to-date book I have read on the subject.' Jonathan Coe"
