- This edited collection investigates the ways in which the twentieth-century novel can now be regarded as a distinct and popular area of study. The collection brings together experts in the field of twentieth-century writing to provide innovative discussions of a set of newly canonical texts. It seeks to re-evaluate some of the twentieth century’s most enduring titles, as well as adding significant new novels to its proposed canon of twentieth-century work. Allen commissioned, edited, and copy-edited the chapters that concern work from the United Kingdom (50% of the volume) and contributed 50% to the introduction (specifically the material on the British canon) as well as contributing (80%) of a co-written chapter (Chapter 10).
