    The Contemporary British Writers Series reflects the breadth and
    diversity of writing in Britain over the last thirty years and provides
    critical evaluations of established, emerging and neglected authors.
    Edited by Daniel Lea (Liverpool John Moores University), the series
    responds to the growing body of academic research in the field and the
    increasing prevalence of contemporary British literature courses in
    institutions of higher education around the world. Volumes in this
    series are intended for the research/postgraduate/undergraduate market
    and proposals should reflect the needs of this audience.

    Please send proposals, questions or expressions of interest to:

    Dr Daniel Lea,

    School of Media, Critical and Creative Arts,

    Dean Walters Building,

    Liverpool John Moores University,

    St James Road,
