Christine Brooke-Rose and Post-War Literature

Meer over het boek

Through extensive archival research and interviews, this book offers an in-depth exploration of Christine Brooke-Rose's innovative literary journey. It examines her evolution from a social satirist in the late 1950s to a pioneer of experimental writing in the 1960s, and her later engagement with poststructuralism and digital themes. The narrative situates her work within significant historical contexts, such as her role at Bletchley Park during WWII and the cultural upheavals of May 1968, ultimately advocating for a reevaluation of her contributions to literature and life writing.
