N2  - Latham proposes that writers and readers throughout the early 20th century revived the codes and habits of the roman �a clef as part of a larger assault on Victorian realism - modernism. He elaborates a concept of modernism that weaves coterie culture with the mass media, psychology with celebrity, and literature with the law
