Recenzii

“Guanio–Uluru does a fine job of exploring her topic in the works of her three chosen authors. The book is particularly strong in describing and discussing the plots and characters of The Lord of the Rings and the Harry Potter series. Guanio–Uluru’s book would be appropriate for undergraduate and advanced high school literature students or metropolitan libraries, and I also think it would be very good for book discussion groups.” (Phillip Fitzsimmons, Mythlore, Vol. 40 (2), 2022)
“This review has barely skimmed the staggering range of ethical considerations advanced with extraordinary care and detail by Guanio-Uluru in this valuable book ... . She has shown that the relationship between ethics and form exhibits astonishing interpretive complexity, in a splendid book that will amply repay many rereadings.” (Claudia Mills, Children Literature Association Quarterly, Vol. 41 (3), Fall, 2016)
