From Behind the Scenes at the Museum to Big Sky, this book explores the major themes and formal concerns in Kate Atkinson's fiction (history, memory, feminism, metafiction, genre revision). It situates Atkinson's uvre in terms of an aesthetics of hydridity that runs through her eleven novels, one play and one collection of stories to date.
This timely in-depth study of award-winning Kate Atkinson's work provides a welcome comprehensive overview of the novels, play and short stories. It explores the major themes and aesthetic concerns in her fiction. Combining close analysis and literary contextualisation, it situates her multi-faceted work in terms of a hybridisation of genres and innovative narrative strategies to evoke contemporary issues and well as the past. Chapters offer insights into each major publication (from Behind the Scenes at the Museum to Big Sky, the latest instalment in the Brodie sequence, through the celebrated Life After Life and subsequent re-imaginings of the war) in relation to the key concerns of Atkinson's fiction, including self-narrativisation, history, memory and women's lives.
