Reviews

Effe provides a much-needed historical perspective to the study of autofiction, a genre that has been dismissed as mere current fashion or postmodern posturing. In demonstrating that the autofictional has existed since the origin of the English novel, Effe paints a deeper, broader, and more historically-accurate portrayal of the field. * Chloe Green, Lecturer in English, Australian National University, Australia *
