Can you recommend some introductory/beginner works to postmodern philosophy and literature?

I know it's considered a broad "movement" and there's purposefully a lack of structure but there has to be some meaning behind the term. This year my goal is to work my way into postmodernist lit and philosophy. I'm thinking of starting with two secondary sources to get a general idea of postmodernism: The Politics of Postmodernism by Linda Hutcheon, and a more literary focus: Postmodernist Fiction by Brian McHale. Has anyone read these?

My personal observation is that the people most vehemently opposed to his character have these things in common ...

1. They're militant atheists, of the stock which comprise the viewership of people like the amazing atheist and those tiny cult followings amassed by YouTube skeptics.

2. They have some critical personal failing for which they have constructed a narrative to explain away the responsibility they have for fixing it.

3. They have zero academic experience with science.

4. They believe that life is fundamentally unfair and unjust and wish to see others who are above them suffer.

Because as we've seen in this thread, absolutely no one has presented credible refutation of even his most simple statements.

The absolute state of "intellectuals".
