Reviews

"'Moroni's interest is not in presenting another soon-to-be-contested reading of Austen but in mapping the indeterminacy of her narrative style. Ideologies are at war in Austen's narrative, he admits, but ""Austen's 'chameleonic' ability"" makes it ""close to impossible... to separate winners and the losers."" This study will not stop others from trying to do so, but it does a good job explaining why no one, so far, has had the last word.' JASNA News"
