| book description |

Contemporary writing is arguably the most exciting and attractive reading-matter to the majority of readers - and by its nature the least charted. This guide provides, in 28 chapters, an account of all that is most significant and worth reading in the mass of writing since 1960. It covers cultures as various as Australian, Spanish-American, French, Israeli, Canadian, New Zealand and Russian, as well as American, English, Welsh, Irish, and Scottish. It concentrates on fiction and poetry, and each chapter provides biographical and background information, informed criticism, and an overview of contemporary writing and its development.
