This book explores complicity in the novels of Albert Camus, Milan Kundera, Kazuo Ishiguro, W. G. Sebald, Thomas Pynchon, and Margaret Atwood. It examines how complicity occurs through failures of witnessing that are present on a thematic level, both in narrative form itself and in readers’ engagement with the texts.
