- This monograph is the product of eight years of research into the experimental and avant-garde novel in Britain between 1950 and 1975. It collects and reassesses a huge corpus of material, including previously obscure works and writers, using archival sources to provide an authoritative account of the literary avant-garde in Britain in the long 1960s. The book reassesses the experimentalism versus realism debates of the period, and argues that these engagements have significance not just for our understanding of these decades but for the broader movement of the novel through the century.
