Reviews

'This impressive study of the postmodern fantastic makes a fresh foray into the terrain through its sustained emphasis upon the paradigms of space and place. Its genuinely global reach is especially exciting and, for those readers whose access to literary texts is too often restricted to works written or translated into English, Garcia's insights into the Hispanic writings of Jose Maria Merino, Patricia Esteban Erles, Jose B. Adolph and others, opens up a particularly rich literary landscape.' -- Lucie Armitt, University of Lincoln, UK
