Italian Pulp Fiction:

Since 1996, a group of young, innovative writers dubbed the 'Giovani Cannibali' has generated popular and critical attention in Italy. This book introduces the works of the 'Cannibali' writers Aldo Nove, Isabella Santacroce, amd Niccolo Ammaniti- among others- to Anglophone readers. It also initiates an in-depth discussion of te dynamics that allowed for this particular group of the mid-1990s to stimulate a profound evolution in the form and very ethics of modern Italian literature.
