Rezensionen
"Dryden's thoroughly researched monograph contains a very systematically organized and impressive bulk of data on the two turn-of-the-century writers' relationship, and she advances her argument in a clear, reader-friendly style. ... researchers looking for intersections of the two authors' art, which have a great potential for fruitful inter-textual analysis, will probably find Dryden's volume most helpful." (Angelika Reichmann, Hungarian Journal of English and American Studies, Vol. 22 (2), Fall, 2016)
