Rezensionen
'This project makes a significant contribution to Rhys studies. Together the essays re-situate Rhys as a modernist and a Caribbean writer. It is an important step in bringing Rhys recognition as a modernist outside of the specific fields of postcolonial and feminist literary studies. It also broadens the scope of Caribbean approaches to Rhys.' Leah Rosenberg, Associate Professor of English, University of Florida, USA

"This timely collection puts the full body of Jean Rhys's work into conversation with a new generation of scholarship regarding affect and politics. These insightful and incisive essays probe Rhys's disruptive critiques of economics, religion and sexual and racial politics and suggest why and how Jean Rhys matters to 21st century readers." - Judith Raiskin, Associate Professor, Women's and Gender Studies Department, University of Oregon, USA

"This is a great demonstration of a new generation's commitment to Rhys studies. Rhys died in 1979, so itis stillearly days for the literary dust to settle, but this collection proves her work attracts successive generations of discriminating and trained readers. The essays shrewdly find interstices in Rhys criticism, some areas noted but not explored very much before, and some finding new approaches to Rhys texts. The collection is collectively informed and adept with regard to earlier readings of Rhys. The title itself sums up the importance of this collection, which deals with matters in Rhys criticism and proves that Rhys still matters." - Elaine Savory, The New School, USA and author of Jean Rhys and The Cambridge Introduction to Jean Rhys
