Reviews

Paige Reynolds's book is consistently insightful into the Irish women's texts it treats and establishes itself at once as a major work in the field. * Anthony Roche, Irish Times * Reynolds's book expands our understanding of Irish writing and modernism while also suggesting further applications beyond studies of modernism and literature by women. The stubborn mode Reynolds uses to parse how older aesthetic models retain their residual cultural status has wide applicability across twentieth-century literary studies, and even those not specializing in contemporary fiction will understand the book as a significant contribution to the new formalisms continuing to shape the fields of literary and cultural studies. * Megan Faragher, Contemporary Literature *
