| Abstract | "The first scholarly book to focus on literary representations of gentrification, this book analyses twenty-first century anglophone novels by authors from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and India. Examining novels from a broad range of writers, including Zadie Smith, Lionel Shriver, Aravind Adiga, Michael Chabon and Irvine Welsh, this book makes a powerful case for the importance of literature in helping to understand the lived experience of gentrification"-- Provided by publisher. |
