About this book
Reviews
'Rainsford's book is clearly written, often witty, well-informed and frequently incisive in its ethical readings. What is more, its comparative methodology draws intriguing parallels between and among the featured authors without being excessively reductive as it effectively bridges formalism and poststructuralism...Authorship, Ehtics and the Reader: Blake, Dickens, Joyce does make us all more human and more humane.' - Mark M. Hennelly, Jr, Dickens Quarterly
'This noteworthy recent contribution from a young and able critic displays an infectious courage and confidence in its reading of three such canonical giants as Blake, Joyce and Dickens to see what they have in common and where the comparable intellectual excitements of their works might lead the reader.' - Richard Brown, Irish Studies
