Reviews

'Provoking in the best senses of the term, Getting Lost in the Novel is bound to prompt argument and further discussion – which is what a good work of criticism aims to do, especially when the issues involved are as vital as the ones Auerbach takes up. This is exciting and original work.' Stephen Arata, Professor of English, University of Virginia 'Auerbach reads with a degree of emotional intuition and sensitivity that is surprisingly rare in our discipline. Getting Lost in the Novel covers an astonishing range of genres, authors and scholars, showing that eighteenth- and nineteenth-century novels not only register desires that women were unable to express, but also served as a private means by which readers could satisfy or at least begin to recognize those desires in themselves.' Elaine Auyoung, Associate Professor of English, University of Minnesota
