This volume explores how the contemporary European novel reflects the tensions between local and global conceptualizations of Metamodernism.

Each chapter explicitly addresses metamodern novels' “glocality” in relation to international Metamodernism theory from a variety of perspectives including Dutch, English, Finnish, French, Italian, Spanish and Ukrainian. By bringing together insights into the manifestations of Metamodernism in such a variety of cultural contexts, this volume furthers our understanding of the concept of Metamodernism and contextualizes the enduring influence of the legacies of Modernism and Postmodernism in European literature
