The Routledge Companion to Postmodernism 3rd Edition

‘I recommend every household to buy two copies of this exemplary compendium. One for the teenagers who should have absorbed its wisdom before setting off to college; and the second for the parents, who won’t ever need to make fools of themselves again by asking what metanarrative is.’ – A.N. Wilson, New Statesman

‘An extremely useful compilation … This is a work crammed with interesting fact and speculation and with a most assiduous cross-referencing of key terms.’–Times Educational Supplement

‘Concise and clear … the Companion will be useful to many types of reader … [it] provides an interesting and varied overview of the many ways in which postmodernism has established itself as a cultural phenomenon.’–Philosophy Now
