Reviews

'Krienke writes for academic readers, and will doubtless inspire literary scholars to try out her approach on other Victorian novels-many of which seem to call for it. Her valuable research will also be of interest to Victorianists in general, and especially those interested in gender, class, medical and colonial history.' Jacqueline Banerjee, Times Literary Supplement '... an exciting new vision of Victorian attitudes toward convalescence and healing. A valuable addition to the literature on Victorian culture. Highly recommended.' L. M. Purdy, Choice
