Reviews
'Kathleen McCormack's George Eliot and Intoxication is striking in its originality, definitively establishing the importance of alcohol and other drugs as fact and metaphor in both George Eliot's world and Victorian culture at large. There are many new interpretations for the general reader and specialists will need to assimilate the book's many new findings and often startling speculations.' - Michael Wolff, Professor Emeritus of English, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
'...there is much in this lively study of intoxication that will stimulate.' - John Rignall, The George Eliot Review
'...this study is a valuable addition to George Eliot scholarship.' - Anna Despotopoulou, Essays in Criticism
