Reviews

""An elegant and convincing account of French materialist thought that shows how that key strand of intellectual history is ineluctably entwined with literature and literary language.""---James Steintrager, University of California, Irvine ""This compelling and timely book makes an innovative argument that should substantially reframe the field. In Meeker's sensitive readings, women authors who did not engage explicitly or dogmatically with materialism nevertheless emerge as important participants in the tradition.""---Jessie Hock, Vanderbilt University
