Description
In The Age Between, author and critic Aidan Chambers presents his manifesto for youth fiction. This thoughtful series of essays weaves together insights from literary history, stylistics, and narrative theory, as well as aspects of psychology, anthropology and neurology. As a reader and writer of youth fiction who understands his own ‘youthness’, Chambers brings a freshness to the analysis of classic texts such as J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, Anne Frank’s Diary, and Robert Cormier’s The Chocolate War. Finally, the author thinks out loud about the shape, purpose and future of youth fiction in a lively interview with Dr Deborah Cogan Thacker.
