Miller, Kristine,1966-

British literature of the Blitzfighting the people's war /[electronic resource] :Kristine A. Miller. - Basingstoke [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - xii, 216 p. :ill. ;23 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 189-208) and index.

Fighting the people's war -- Mobile women in Elizabeth Bowen's war writing -- Immobile women in Rosamond Lehmann's war writing -- Real men in Henry Green's war writing -- No escape in the detective and spy fiction of Agatha Christie, Margery Allingham, and Graham Greene -- The film-minded public.

Analyzing conflicted representations of class and gender in British literature and film of the Blitz, this book interrogates the ideal of the People b2 ss War, which claimed to unite men and women of all classes in defence of the home front. The subtitle b6 s Fighting the People b2 ss War b6 s describes the way that British citizens not only cooperated to fight Nazi Germany but also questioned the nationalist ideologybinding them together. The paradox of the People's War is that it counters a totalitarian threat with a potentially totalizing ideal: becauseit is both patriotic and utopian, the rhetoric resists critique, even though the right to question compulsory nationalism was precisely what Britain was fighting for. Above all else, British literature of the Blitz values the voicing of individual opinion, even b6 s or especially b6 s when individuals do not agree: a utopia that denies the freedom tocritique utopianism is no utopia at all.
