What a bizarre grouping of writers.  Toni Morrison I don't much care for, but Jonathan Safran Foer?  An historical site of literary postmodernism?  He doesn't even write as well as his girlfriend.   

/"Rethinking Postmodernism(s) /revisits three historical sites of 
American literary postmodernism: the early postmodernism of Thomas 
Pynchon’s V. (1961), the emancipatory postmodernism of Toni Morrison’s 
/Beloved/ (1987), and the late or post-postmodernism of Jonathan Safran 
Foer’s /Everything Is Illuminated/ (2002). [...]"
