Reviews

This is a thoroughly remarkable book. ... Barrows's approach clearly demonstrates that geo-criticism, combined with textual analysis that is spatial, is up to the task of making apparent complex spatial and temporal configurations in literary narratives. (Heike Polster, Kronoscope, Issue 20, 2020)
