Publisher Description:

[T]his collection is interesting and timely, and the attempt of many of the essays to re-establish what their authors usually call a humanistic criticism is a welcome and useful provocation. --Donald Gray

In this series of essays from Novel: A Forum on Fiction, a pantheon of scholars explores the conflict between humanist and posthumanist responses to questions about the novel's relevancy in postmodern times.
