Recenzii

“‘Each chapter offers a combination of practice andtheory in that it joins the actual rewriting of the history of the novel toreflections on that rewriting’ … . The book as a whole deserves the attentionof anyone interested in the history of the novel and the future of its study.”(Jason H. Pearl, Sharp News, Vol. 24 (4), 2015)
