Abstract
Abstract:Lavie Tidhar’s By Force Alone (2020) deploys intentional anachronisms in its self-reflexive and violent representation of the Arthurian legends. By Force Alone is a savage critique of the discourse of the Brexit campaign; by undercutting the myths that built Britain, the novel exposes the twin lies of narrative and nationhood.
