The book is a study of the most recent American fiction, published at the turn of the 21th century, which demonstrates a renewed interest in the matters of history. The author points at the ways in which subjective history has been created in the new «novel about history», written by such authors as William Gass, Richard Powers and Nicholson Baker.
