Book Synopsis

In this ambitious book, Patrick Brantlinger offers a cultural history of Great Britain focused on the concept of "public credit," from the 1694 founding of the Bank of England to the present.



Trade Review

Brantlinger's immensely learned third book carries on the current fashion in literary criticism of culture critique, employing both Marxist and postmodern categories.
