    Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Toward a New Postmodern Language Game: C. S. Peirce and the Pragmatist Language of Creativity and Consensus -- Creativity and Power: Thomas Pynchon’s V. -- Consensus and Difference: Toni Morrison’s Beloved -- Creativity and Consensus: Jonathan Safran Foer’s Everything Is Illuminated -- Conclusion -- Works Cited. 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). For the first time, it confronts these texts with the pragmatist philosophy of Charles Sanders Peirce, staging a conceptual dialogue between pragmatism and postmodernism that historicizes and recontextualizes customary readings of postmodern fiction. The book is a must-read for all interested in current reassessments of literary postmodernism, in new critical dialogues between seminal postmodern texts, and in recent attempts to theorize the ‘post-postmodern’ moment
