Editorial Reviews
Review
'This is one of the most lively and lucid studies of contemporary fiction around. Whether or not you agree with his provocative definition of the postmodern, McHale's argument is always engaging, bold and forceful' - Linda Hutcheon

`Not only does the critical jargon not get in the way of his thesis, but McHale even uses examples you've heard of ... A useful and comprehensive examination of the nature of The Beast.' - City Limits

`McHale ... has written a brilliant, forceful and lucid defence of his own view.' - John Fletcher, Journal of European Studies
