reviews: Place and Space in Modern Fiction

    Return to Place and Space in Modern Fiction Choice"This important book joins the work of narratologists like Gerard gennette, Seymour Chatman, and Mieke Bal." "Highly recommended." Journal of the American Academy of Religion"Provides a wonderful mini course in current 'space and place studies,' replete with a rich bibliography for anyone wishing to enter the conversation." Modernism/Modernity…rehabilitate[s] narrative theory for use in understanding, and reacting positively to, rapid geographic change…fills a significant gap in work on both narrative theory and modernism, which have historically emphasized the importance of temporality over and against space or place. South Atlantic Review…a carefully structured, fully realized, and amply documented work of scholarship that gathers together a vast amount of the contemporary research on the growing field of study concerned with the narrativization of space.
