Abstract
The city has always been a dominant theme, setting, and field of signification in the novel, particularly in contemporary novels that engage with modernist and postmodernist traditions. This interview/essay presents recent findings in both literary theory and novelistic practice that explore how the city can be represented in literary form. In it novelist Anthony Macris and theorist Anthony Uhlmann use a methodological framework informed by perception, sensation and the real in a discussion of Macris’ Capital novels.
