Summary

Holocaut Fictionexamines the controversies accompanying the publication of novels that represent the Holocaust. Sue Vice examines the most debatable of this genre of literature, the violently mixed receptions of these fictions, and offers what can concluded from their receptions about the ethics and practice of millennial Holocaust literature. Although several of the novels discussed won literary prizes on publication, they were also deplored and criticized. The Novels examined, including some for the first time are: Time's Arrowby Martin Amis The White Hotelby D.M. Thomas The Painted Birdby Jerzy Kosinsky Schindler's Listby Thomas Keneally Sophie's Choiceby William Styron The Hand That Signed the Paperby Helen Darville In this gripping and compelling book, Vice surveys the fictional, critical and theoretical territory of these novels, and brings a new slant to the key debates and issues relevant to those lookingat representations of the Holocaust.
