Reviews

'Touching on the entire spectrum of the author's controversial life and career, Theodore Dreiser Recalled is a must read not only for Dreiserians but for anyone interested in a multiperspectival portrayal of a watershed figure in US realism and naturalism.' Klaus H. Schmidt, Studies in American Naturalism

Reviews 'Riveting reading... the continually changing perspectives on Dreiser from different subject positions convey a dynamic and complex personality... Theodore Dreiser Recalled is best read in book reviewer fashion, cover to cover.' Clare Eby, American Literary Realism 'Touching on the entire spectrum of the author's controversial life and career, Theodore Dreiser Recalled is a must read not only for Dreiserians but for anyone interested in a multiperspectival portrayal of a watershed figure in US realism and naturalism.' Klaus H. Schmidt, Studies in American Naturalism
