Episode 1 After the First World War, as the UK came to terms with the devastation of war and the decline of the empire, people began to experience self-doubt and an ideological crisis during the interwar period, prompting a transformation in British literature. During this time, some of the greatest and most innovative works of modern British fiction emerged, which subsequently dominated the fate and wealth of the literary world, becoming immortal. Episode 2 The end of World War II ushered in the atomic age—the era of anxiety conceived by W.H. Auden had arrived. The Holocaust and mushroom clouds permeated people's emotions, and as the political situation deteriorated, feelings of anxiety, horror, and fear of a potential "apocalyptic war" intensified. A new generation of novelists bore a heavy responsibility to confront and express the experiences of this time. Episode 3 Finally, the exploration of the 70s and 80s—this period, as Angela Carter indicated, was one in which societal norms were constantly questioned, indeed, "nothing is sacred." As British novels suddenly became the focal point of attention, novelists undoubtedly stood at the forefront of a new revolution. As agents of provocation, they transformed literary thought and took root deeply.
