Reflections on Postmodern Literature.

      Аннотация: There have been many social, political and religious issues and challenges reflected in postmodern literature. Postmodernists have raised many issues like ethnicity, gender, marginalization, sex, commercialization, absurdism, existentialism, hybridity, cultural materialism, consumerism, violation of human rights, war and so on. Those several issues and new ideas reflected in contemporary postmodern poetry, drama, fiction, biographies, autobiographies and prose have come under one roof in the form of this book to facilitate understanding of students, teachers and researchers. It possesses the range of writers from varied socio-cultural background and literary texts rooted in diverse topics like folk, crime fiction, Islamic feminism, war, diaspora, magic realism etc are explored.Postmodernism thus reflects both the energy and diversity of contemporary life as well as its frequent lack of coherence and depth. The lines between reality and artifice can become so blurred that reality TV is now hard to distinguish from reality-and from television entertainment. Being in the second decade of the 21st century, it is high time to critically observe zeitgeist of the present.
