Book Synopsis
In this volume, Simon Joyce examines the ways in which readers have come to view canonical modernists such as James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, showing how their work might be read in conjunction with lesser-known Irish and 'New Woman' novelists such as George Moore, Sarah Grand, and George Egerton.

Table of Contents
1. How Zola crossed (and didn't cross) the English Channel; 2. Portraits and artists: impressionism and naturalism; 3. A naturalism for Ireland; 4. Proto-sensitivity: naturalism, aestheticism, and the New Woman novel; 5. The voice of witlessness: Virginia Woolf and the poor.
