Reviews

'an accessible, stimulating and thoroughly-researched guide ... it offers a wide-ranging, up-to-date, thought-provoking account of the relationships between modernism and a number of discourses, movements and fields of study that have emerged since 1930 ... Accessible and engaging, wide-ranging yet succinct, it would be no surprise to see it become a common fixture on academic syllabi.' - Michael Perfect, Bilkent University, Turkey, in The London Literary Journal, Volume 12 Number 1-2 (Spring/Autumn 2015)
