Looking at 100 years of terrorism in print--from Conrad on Anarchism in the 1880s to Seamus Heaney and Ciaran Carson on the "Troubles" in the 1980s--Terrorism and Modern Literature offers a fresh perspective on terrorism's cultural aftermath. In this first extensive study of the phenomenon, Alex Houen explores the historical and political dimensions of writing terrorism in the modern world.
