Reviews

On the whole, Trauma, Gender and Ethics in the Works of E.L. Doctorow is a remarkable and exceedingly well-researched study that reads E.L. Doctorow's literature through an innovative and intricate lens. Apart from the exquisite writing style, one of the book's greatest virtues lies in its theoretical exuberance, which constitutes an essential tool to navigate the analysis and understating of the novels discussed. It is a brilliant study offering compelling and insightful material that should prove to be of great interest to lovers of literature and specialists in the fields of feminist and trauma studies.
