"This study offers a fresh perspective on Ali Smith's work, analysing her fiction through a truly interdisciplinary lens. José I. Prieto-Arranz explores Smith's engagement with contemporary issues such as digital violence, disinformation, pornography, nationalism, climate change, discrimination and social fracture. Simultaneously, the book examines Smith's unique stylistic choices, including her use of magical realism, intertextuality and intermediality, to reveal the intricate connection between the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of her novels. Through close readings of Smith's novels, from Like to Companion Piece, enriched with insights from her prolific short fiction, the author demonstrates how Smith constructs a "text continuum," revealing recurrent themes and stylistic choices that underline her firm belief in the transformative power of fiction and, by extension, art. This book will appeal to scholars of contemporary literature, art theory, political science, sociology and cultural studies, and anyone interested in literature and social commentary"-- Provided by publisher.
