Focusing on the 1980s as a pivotal "nuclear decade," this book examines the impact of nuclear themes in British and American fiction across various genres, including literary and young adult literature. It highlights the dialogue between British and American texts, identifies a dynamic young adult fiction scene, and explores a "politics of vulnerability" within nuclear discourse. By situating nuclear literature within broader social and historical contexts, it reveals how these narratives reflect and respond to contemporary fears and debates surrounding gender, environment, society, and economy.
