Reviews

"I am struck particularly by the soundness of the interpretations. The authors provide a very convincing analysis of their subject, eschewing mere cleverness in favour of balanced insight. There is wisdom as well as passion in their arguments." Ruth Wisse, Department of Jewish Studies, McGill University. "Individually and collectively the essays contribute to our understanding of the literary works examined in the light of contemporary prejudices and their subsequent impact on a continuing thorny feature of our culture." Moses W. Steinberg, Department of English, University of British Columbia.
