"Annabel Patterson, leading expert on politics in Renaissance literature, has produced a dazzling study of modern world fiction, each novel shown to expose (often through lush, confident technique) the persistent violence that infests the relations between bigger and smaller nations and puts the hand of death on countless lives."—Nigel Smith, Princeton University.
“With her characteristic verve and thoughtfulness, Annabel Patterson makes a powerful case for the international novel as a source of geopolitical awareness. Close analysis provides contexts for understanding both the idiosyncrasies of the chosen works and their shared interest in questions relating to colonialism, national history, ethnicity, gender, territorialism, and religious divides. This is an important and provocative study, of admirable reach and directness, written by a scholar who brings fresh insight to familiar and less well-known novels.”—April London, University of Ottawa
