Rezensionen
"In this wide-ranging, ambitious study of American women's writing, Alison Graham-Bertolini offers accessibly written, clearly argued, and often perceptive readings of a diverse range of texts. Her analyses shed light on an important and underexamined subject: the figure of the vigilante woman in modern American literature. ... this is a consistently engaging contribution to scholarship that ranges across twentieth-century American literature in stimulating and memorable ways." (Ruth Maxey, Contemporary Women's Writing, Vol. 10 (2), July, 2016)
