Publisher's Synopsis

Frank Kermode returns to the literature of his youth to ask why we appear to have forgotten how urgent and powerful it seemed in a time of economic crisis and imminent world war. He also looks at postmodernism as a rejection of wholeness, and a catastrophic break with the past.
