Descriere

This volume studies how the economic crisis of the 1970s and the rise of neoliberalism established the conditions for a contemporary American literary form: the neoliberal apocalypse.

It reveals how contemporary American cultural and literary narratives have been shaped by the widespread tendency to see our present as apocalyptic.
