This book examines the factors influencing the inclusion of post-war British women novelists in the literary canon. Focusing on authors such as Iris Murdoch, Anita Brookner, Ruth Rendell, and Emma Tennant, Nick Turner explores how academic trends, genre demands, commercialization, and literary prizes affect literary reputations. The study raises significant cultural questions about the arts, fashions, and the formation of literary canons in contemporary literary studies.
