Thatcher’s legacy is perceived in contemporary literature. Although concluding statements are rather brief, she provides clear, individualized readings of each text followed by cross-thematic readings to elicit a deeper engagement between Thatcherite policy and literary representation. More importantly, the work serves as a reminder that, in understanding contemporary literature, there must be an engagement with the sociopolitical inheritance of the past. In doing so, Duff ’s analysis reveals the intrinsic relation between literary studies and urban spatial theory, and is essential reading to literary and political researchers alike.
