The previous decade has seen a growing interest in criticism of postmodern ethics and aesthetics from theorists and writers. This book begins to answer what art form or critical methodology might take its place.  Exploring the work of six contemporary novelists - Bret Easton Ellis, J.G. Ballard, Will Self, Michel Houellebecq, Tama Janowitz and Chuck Palahniuk - Ethics and Desire in the Wake of Postmodernism delivers a series of interventions into six key areas of contemporary debate: fear, nihilism, revolution, ethics, enjoyment and feminism. The book goes on to develop an innovative critical methodology which reinvigorates the ability of art and literature to engage in ideological critique. Rather than valorising separatism, plurality or indeterminacy, this approach delivers a critical framework which enacts a radical de-centering of the fundamental coordinates of contemporary society. 410 0$aContinuum literary studies. 606 $aFiction$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $2Literary studies: from c 1900 - 606 $aSatire 606 $aEthics in literature 606 $aDesire in literature 606 $aPostmodernism (Literature) 615 0$aFiction$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aSatire. 615 0$aEthics in literature. 615 0$aDesire in literature. 615 0$aPostmodernism (Literature) 676 $a809.3/9357 700 $aMatthews$b Graham$0863142 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911154732103321 996 $aEthics and desire in the wake of postmodernism$94846776 997 $aUNINA
