After experiencing the surge of postmodernist experimental novels in the 1960s, American neorealist novels that began in the 1970s blended the writing techniques of traditional realist novels with the experimental consciousness of modernist and postmodernist novels, increasingly attracting the attention of literary critics and readers with diverse and rich text forms. In the context of postclassical narrative research, this book relies on the theories, perspectives, concepts, and categories proposed by postclassical narratology that have attracted much attention from the literary criticism community. It explores the structure, discourse, rhetoric, ethics, etc. Of representative American neorealist writers and their works, thereby interpreting the narrative connotation of the realist turn in American novels that began in the 1970s.
