Recenzii

'[MacKay and Stonebridge's] brilliant understanding of the conditions of the novel after modernism has allowed them to revive this 'distant dream'. [...] This collection [...] offers a new vision of late modernity. It effectively explains the 'filmic narrative,' the montage and pastiche techniques.' - The European English Messenger
