Swallowing Geography
By:Deborah Levy
Published on 2014-02-06 by Penguin UK



Swallowing Geography is a stunning early novel by the Man Booker-shortlisted Deborah Levy. Embedded in this beautifully written novel is Deborah Levy's gift for blending fairytale with biting satire. Through the voice of the irreverent and ironic narrator J.K., Swallowing Geography interrogates the yearning of discontented children, imagined homes and strangers and histories at the turbulent close of the 20th century. 'A stunningly original writer' Kirsty Gunn 'One of the few British writers comfortable on a world stage' New Statesman 'Levy's strength is her originality of thought and expression' Jeanette Winterson Deborah Levy writes fiction, plays and poetry. Her work has been staged by the Royal Shakespeare Company, and she is the author of highly praised books including The Unloved, Things I Don't Want to Know, Beautiful Mutants and Billy and Girl. Her novel Swimming Home was shortlisted for the 2012 Man Booker Prize, 2012 Specsavers National Book Awards (UK Author of the Year) and 2013 Jewish Quarterly Wingate Prize, while the title story of her most recent work of fiction, Black Vodka, was shortlisted for the 2012 BBC International Short Story Award.

The Institution of English Literature

The Institution of English Literature By:Barbara Schaff,Johannes Schlegel,Carola Surkamp Published on 2016-11-07 by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht The contributions investigate the ways in which numerous institutions of English literature shape the literary field. While they cover an extensive historical field, ranging from the Early Modern period to the 18th century to the contemporary, they focus not only on literary texts, but also on extra-literary ones, including literary prizes, literary histories and anthologies, and highlight the various ways in which these negotiate the processes that constitute the literary field. All contributions assert that there is no such thing as literature outside of institutions. Great emphasis is therefore put on different acts of mediation. This Book was ranked at 36 by Google Books for keyword Man Booker Prize.
