This study of Peter Ackroyd engages with the aspects of literary stylistics, and personal and national identity, so important in his work. Rejecting the postmodern label previously attached to the author, Gibson and Wolfreys provide a consideration of all Ackroyd’s writing to date, from his poetry and critical thought, to his novels and biographies.
