摘要：
    In this talk I will address issues of ethnocentrism and loneliness in contemporary British fiction by looking at three very different novels, Sarah Moss’s Ghost wall (2018), Barney Farmer’s Drunken Baker (2018) and Bernard Cornwell's Warlord (2020) in conjunction with recent work in quantitative political science and the thought of Hannah Arendt.
