Reviews

"""Bruce Thomas Boehrer's resourceful sifting of Jonson's plays focuses on the network of tentacular roots animating their language. His concern to explore the furthest reaches of Jonson's metaphors of writing as ingestion, digestion, and excretion, might even be termed fundamental. It certainly hits pay-dirt."" * <i>London Review of Books</i> *"
