    Where the New World Is
    The Postsouthern Sense of Place in Contemporary Fiction
    • Exploring the southern "sense of place," Martyn Bone connects regional literature to broader national and global themes. He analyzes the works of notable Neo-Agrarian writers like Faulkner and Welty, alongside contemporary authors responding to capitalist influences on the South, particularly in Atlanta. Through close readings of novels by various writers, Bone delves into concepts of capital, land, labor, and class. He concludes that the southern sense of place may extend beyond its borders, revealing a transnational dimension in literature.

      Assesses how fiction published since 1980 has resituated the US South globally and how earlier twentieth-century writing already had done so in ways traditional southern literary studies tended to ignore. Martyn Bone argues that this body of fiction has challenged received readings and understandings of the US South.
