Professor Widdowson's study offers close and stimulating textual readings of Swift's seven novels to date including his modern classic Waterland and Last Orders which won the Booker Prize and was made into a successful film.
This study offers a close reading of each of Swift's novels, exploring the innovative formal strategies and identifying such recurrent themes as the presence of the past in the present, the blurring of distinctions between 'history' and 'story', fact and fiction, and the possibilities of redemption in a contemporary social and emotional wasteland.
