Recenzii
'At Vanity Fair is built upon a vast amount of research and scholarship (the notes and bibliography run to eighty pages). It is also a pleasure to read. All students of Bunyan will want to consider its arguments, but so too will scholars interested in the burgeoning field of adaptation studies, in book history and the history of reading, and in the concept of intertextuality. Sadly, her untimely death in 2013 meant that Kirsty Milne did not live to see the publication of this outstanding contribution to literary scholarship.' W. R. Owens, The Review of English Studies
'Milne traces [Vanity Fair] as it appears in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century novels, letters, journalism and light verse. The result is a pugnacious and provocative interrogation of the ways in which 'a literary text is constructed' and of the relationship between seventeenth-century Puritanism and the modern free market.' Frances Wilson, New Statesman
