Reviews

“The book succeeds at providing a truly new interpretation of an area that has been mainly associated with Modernist literature. It presents the first thorough investigation of the neighbourhood’s change over time, unearthing its unprecedented shifts in the domains of literature, culture, economy and society.” (BAVS Newsletter, Vol. 19 (3), 2019)
