Recenzii

'A balanced, thoughtful and fair-minded study of the critical reception of Ellis's work, exploring his status as serious contemporary writer, alongside his reputation as a sensationalist (and misogynist) trouble-maker. Baelo-Allué's examination of the shallow surfaces and schizophrenic self-awareness of his work is subtle, informed and extremely well-judged - this is unquestionably the most thorough and wide-ranging study of Ellis's oeuvre to date.'
Winner of the 2011 Enrique García Diez book award for literary research - Spanish Association of Anglo-American Studies
