Introduction: Epitaph on a Ghost, or the Impossible End of Postmodernism -- PART I: TRACING SHIFTS -- 1. Post-post, Beyond and Back: Literature in the Wake of Postmodernism -- 2. Pragmatic Fantasies: From Subversion to Reconstruction -- PART II: RECONSTRUCTIVE READINGS -- 3. Leaving the Postmodernist Labyrinth: Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves -- 4.

Dreaming of Reconstruction: David Mitchell's number9dream -- Conclusion: The Coming of Age of Reconstruction.

Postmodernism, deconstruction and subversion have been the buzzwords of the last few decades. But not any longer. Ever since the end of the millennium an increasingly perceptible desire to turn towards other concerns can be noted. Only, what comes after postmodernism? Where are we going now? Irmtraud Huber suggests some answers to these questions, focusing on novels by Michael Chabon, Mark Z. Danielewski, Jonathan Safran Foer and David Mitchell and highlighting the ways in which they go beyond postmodernism and turn from deconstruction to reconstruction. Approaching the question from an unusual direction by exploring the novelists' particular use of the fantastic mode, this book offers both further insights into the present aesthetic shift and a new perspective on the literary fantastic.
