Focusing on the significance of travel in Joseph Conrad, E.M. Forster, D.H. Lawrence, Henry James and Edith Wharton, Robert Burden shows how travel enabled a new consciousness of mobility and borders during the modernist period. Burden argues that the greater awareness of cultural difference that characterizes both the travel writing and fiction of these expatriate writers became a defining feature of literary modernism that challenged the ethnographic project of empire.
