The aim of this series is to provide accessible and informative introductions to the most popular, most acclaimed and most influential novels of recent years. A team of contemporary fiction scholars from both sides of the Atlantic has been assembled to give a thorough and readable analysis of each of the novels in question. The books in the series all follow the same five-part structure : a short biography of the novelist ; a full-length study of the novel, drawing out the most important themes and ideas ; a summary of how the novel was received when it was first published ; a summary of the novel's standing today, including any film or television adaptations ; a helpful list of discussion questions, suggestions for further reading, and useful websites.
Continuum Contemporaries are a wonderful source of ideas and inspiration for members of book clubs and reading groups, as well as for students of contemporary literature at school, college and university.
