Publisher's Synopsis
?This collective volume undertakes an appraisal and literary-historical localization of German-language pop literature of the 1990s, which is associated with such writers as Joachim Bessing, Rainald Goetz, Alexa Hennig von Lange, Christian Kracht, Joachim Lottmann, Thomas Meinecke, Andreas Neumeister and Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre. One focus of the volume is on performativity? how authors of pop literature staged themselves. In addition, the book explores the narrative, intertextual and intermedial strategies of pop-literature texts and their contexts.
