And how might citizens and academics come together in order to better understand the attitudes and experiences of the other? Simon Grimble introduces Brexit and the Democratic Intellect, a collection of essays and poems derived from discussions at a symposium in January 2017.

Today, reviewers and cultural pundits mock the rise of “chick lit” and “the sex-and-shopping” novel, but sanders’s monograph indicates these genres have a long historical provenance and are actually significant cultural mechanisms. Although the heavy use of critical terminology makes the prose style rather indigestible, and while the many theoretical positions used to advance the argument might have been handled with a lighter touch, this is an important work for literary scholars and cultural critics who will appreciate its engagement with labour, leisure and the single, working woman at the turn of the century.
