"This Time Round"
David Mitchell's experimental novel, Cloud Atlas , confronts the potentially apocalyptic effects of both linear and cyclical modes of temporality.

If she were a landlord, she'd rent out the hallways. It would make it so much more entertaining for the tenants. Mr. Jones and wife could have cots number one and two; Jackson and girl friend could occupy number three. And Rinaldi, who drove a cab nights, could suble…

The Naturalistic Inner-City Novel in America
Giles (English, Northern Illinois U.) surveys the early examples of inner-city naturalism, then examines in detail six 20th- century novels. He finds that the earlier novels by Stephen Crane, Frank Norris, and Jack London mined American ghettos for exotic and sensational characters; but that the lat
