Publisher Description

Demonstrates how spatial and temporal dislocation were defining traits of the artistic response to the urban bombing campaigns of the Second World War. Studying a range of writers, as well as film, photography, and art, it argues that for civilian populations, aerial bombardment distorts the experience of time itself.
