OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In New Sincerity: American Fiction in the Neoliberal Age (Stanford University Press, 2024), Adam Kelly offers a field- defining account of American fiction in the 1990s and 2000s, addressing the work of influential authors including Susan Choi, Helen DeWitt, Jennifer Egan, George Saunders, Colson Whitehead, and David Foster Wallace. This seminar will involve reading pre-circulated copies of the introduction and conclusion to the book, and a discussion with the author.
