Visions of hell have preoccupied writers from Dante to Dickens but few have dared to imagine heaven. Andrew will explore the afterlife and apocalypse as discussed by contemporary writers from Douglas Coupland to John Updike.

Andrew Tate lectures in Literature at Lancaster University. This year he has written a book on Douglas Coupland and another entitled contemporary Fiction and Christianity.
