20/21

Walter Benn Michaels, Series Editor

20/21 focuses on 20th and 21st century American literature and culture. The aim of the series is to make this period available for critical work that interrogates rather than reproduces the terms in which we have come to understand it. We want both to engage and to alter the standard tools of contemporary analysis--from the postmodern and the postcolonial through the post-human and the post-political. More generally, 20/21 will welcome ambitious books seeking to make a difference to our understanding of the present as well as the recent past.
