For the contributors to this collection, it is the ancient religious tradition called 'the messianic' that provides the critical lens through which modernity may...

The New Atheist Novel is the first study of a major new genre of contemporary fiction. It examines how Richard Dawkins's so-called 'New Atheism' movement has caught the imagination of four eminent modern novelists: Ian McEwan, Martin Amis, Salman Rushdie and Philip Pullman.
