Description
Peter Ackroyd: A Study in Literary Identity
Susana Onega's first book-length study offers a comprehensive assessment of Peter Ackroyd's literary identity, tracing the range of his writings from his fictional treatment of London to his recovery of the English Catholic cultural tradition.
The book explores how Ackroyd's multilayered novels work to enhance their fictionality while suggesting a paradoxical yearning for mythical closure. A valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding Ackroyd's literary output and its place within the broader English cultural tradition.
