| 520 | |a "This book analyzes representations of digital technology and the social and ethical concerns it creates in mainstream literary American fiction and fiction written about America in the first two decades of the twenty-first century. In this period, authors such as Don DeLillo, Jennifer Egan, Dave Eggers, Joshua Ferris, Jonathan Safran Foer, Mohsin Hamid, Thomas Pynchon, Kristen Roupenian, Gary Shteyngart, and Zadie Smith found themselves implicated in the developing digital world of flat screens, threatened by it, and also attempting to critique it. As a result, their texts explore how human relationships with digital devices and media transform human identity and human relationships with one another, history, divinity, capitalism, and nationality. These authors show through their fiction that technology is political. In the process, they complement and expand on work by historians, philosophers, and social scientists. They create accessible, literary roadmaps to our digital future"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
