Thesis (M.A.)--McGill University (Canada), 2010.

This thesis explores ways in which Second World War food shortages, rationing, and propaganda affected midcentury British fiction. Arguing that food imagery offers a useful barometer of the domestic war climate, the thesis is divided into two main sections: the first focusing on the representation and regulation of food by the government, and the second analyzing the depiction of food in contemporary fiction as a response both to the government's martialization of food and to the shortages themselves. Taking novels by Barbara Pym and Elizabeth Taylor as examples, it discusses ways in which the "official food narratives" defined in the first chapter were acknowledged and transformed in contemporary fiction.
