Reviews

`[The] Individual essays are of a high standard and make an original contribution to the overall reassessment of seventeenth-century fiction. ... Taken together, these essays make an important contribution to a growing sense of how cultural exchange functioned in the seventeenth century, and to a more nuanced understanding of seventeenth-century fiction.'
Paul Salzman, Modern Language Review
