Holocaut Fiction" examines the controversies accompanying the publication of novels that represent the Holocaust. Sue Vice examines the most debatable of this genre of literature, the violently mixed receptions of these fictions, and offers what can concluded from their receptions about the ethics and practice of millennial Holocaust literature. Although several of the novels discussed won literary prizes on publication, they were also deplored and criticized. The Novels examined, including some for the first time are: "Time's Arrow" by Martin Amis "The White Hotel" by D.M. Thomas "The Painted Bird" by Jerzy Kosinsky "Schindler's List" by Thomas Keneally "Sophie's Choice" by William Styron "The Hand That Signed the Paper" by Helen Darville In this gripping and compelling book, Vice surveys the fictional, critical and theoretical territory of these novels, and brings a new slant to the key debates and issues relevant to those looking at representations of the Holocaust.
