This book is composed with the reader in mind: the prose is lively, the structure clear, and the argument convincing. There is no doubt that it will be of great interest not only to scholars working on Graffigny, Rousseau, or Bernardin, but to anyone interested in fictional narratives of the eighteenth century. Moreover, the individual chapters would serve as an excellent complement to the primary texts in an intermediate or advanced classroom setting. Howellss exploration of regressive fictions in socio-cultural context makes it a fresh and significant contribution to eighteenth-century French literary studies.'--Heidi Bostic, Michigan Technological University ""French Review 82.4, 2008 ""
