Recenzii

"The latest in the Continuum Studies in Literary Genre series, Horror Fiction: An Introduction follows the same nine-point structure as other volumes: a broad definition of essential elements of the genre, timeline of historical developments, critical concerns to keep in mind while reading, detailed readings of key texts, extensive analysis of major themes and issues, guidelines for further study, a summary of the most widely noted criticism in the field, a glossary of terms, and an annotated, critical reading list... A superb basic study text for novice literature students, or advanced literature students who are new to the horror genre."- Library Bookwatch, February 2006
"Its value is in its discussions of women writers (often minor ones) and feminist and queer theory...it may be of value to those who are already well acquainted with the field for its stress on feminist and queer theory and on lesser-known female writers." -Roger C. Schlobin, Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, 18.3
"This new book is aimed at the many literary courses on media and undergraduates who need a one-top introduction to both the film and fiction of the horror genre. Each of the sections is broken down into smaller subsections that deal with diverse stories such as domestic horror." -Times Higher Education Supplement, May 2006
