Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Historical Fiction Now brings together prominent authors, scholars, and critics of historical fiction to explore the genre's character, fortunes, and potential in the twenty-first century. Gathering together the voices of novelists, critics, academics, and several authors writing across these categories, the volume explores the nature of reading, writing, and writing about historicalfiction in the present moment while meditating on some of the myriad contexts of the genre. What inspires writers to choose particular moments, events, and personalities as the subjects of their fictional imaginings, and with whatimplications for their readers' understanding of the present? How do contemporary scholars approach the making and reception of historical fiction, and how do these approaches resonate with writers' own preoccupations in the process of invention? What might scholars of a genre with a long and complex history learn from its contemporary practitioners? Conversely, how do novelists understand their own historical fictions (if at all) in relation to the theoretical and critical traditions shapingthe work of their academic colleagues? The collection features an original essay by Hilary Mantel on the making of the Wolf Hall trilogy as well as contributions frominternationally known novelists such as George Saunders, Namwali Serpell, Maaza Mengiste, and Tea Obreht, among others. An edited volume that brings together award-winning historians, novelists, and literary critics to discuss the popularity of historical fiction. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780198877035
