`fasinating ... King's emphasis on the political and religious
aspects of Barker's work is refreshing. For example, her discussion
of the themes of courtship and marriage, which recur throughout the
work, is intelligent and welcome.'
Clare Pettitt, Times Literary Supplement, Friday 6th April 2001
`fascinating biography of a literary career ... King's emphasis on
the political and religious aspects of Barker's work is refreshing.
For example, her discussion of the themes of courtship and
marriage, wich recur throughout the work, is intelligent and
welcome. ... This book certainly leads us in interesting ways back
to Barker's work.'
Claire Pettitt, TLS
