Mellor makes the persuasive argument that to understand Second World War British culture one must understand the ruined and fragmented cityscapes that it responds to. Of relevance to literary critics and cultural historians, and featuring famous and forgotten authors, this book makes modernism – and war literature – look vividly different.
