Reviews

Ellerhoff's fascinating post-Jungian analysis of these stories not only situates these texts within the broader theoretical framework of archetypal psychology, but he also carefully contextualises them within the unique historical moment of post-war America. - Miranda Corcoran, Journal of the Irish Association for American Studies
