Literary modernism, or modernist literature, has its origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mainly in Europe and North America, and is characterized by a very self-conscious break with traditional ways of writing, in both poetry and prose fiction.

Modernist Literature

As Lucy Tantamount dryly observes to Walter Bidlake in Aldous
Huxley’s Point Counter Point (1928), ‘Living modernly’s living
quickly.’1
 The scene is not simply an example of disaffected banter
between a pair of lovers; it is a skirmish between opposing viewpoints. In Lucy’s estimation, Walter is anything but up-to-date. She is
of the opinion that Walter thinks in ‘an absurdly unmodern way about
everything.’2
 He does not understand that
[y]ou can’t cart a wagon-load of ideals and romanticisms with
you these days. When you travel by aeroplane, you must leave
your heavy baggage behind. The good old-fashioned soul was
all right when we lived slowly. But it’s too ponderous nowadays. There’s no room for it in the aeroplane.3
With its attention to speed and rejection of the past, Lucy’s jeering
declaration is striking for at least two reasons. First, it suggests the
highly self-conscious perception of time and space characteristic of
twentieth-century literature and culture. Second, it captures the sense
that speed—in particular, the speed with which change takes place—is
a fundamental characteristic of modern life. Or as Lucy puts it while
also extending the aeroplane metaphor, ‘If you like speed, if you want
to cover the ground, you can’t have luggage.
