"Working within a discipline that now searches for multiple lines of filiation, Kent develops a wide-ranging argument in service of a provocative thesis: the novel emerges as a 'site of endurance' for a liturgically-based ontology 'embodied,' quite literally, in late-medieval devotional practices. 'Modernity's' supposed rupture with its 'medieval' past is once again challenged by a writer willing to engage with what has been overlooked, marginalized, concealed - this time in service of a renewed spirituality." - James M. Kee, Professor of English, College of the Holy Cross, USA
"A new, spicy voice in the counter-tradition that runs from Margaret Anne Doody to Thomas Pavel, Kent's work upends scholarly assumptions of the novel's modern origins and secularizing trajectory. Her insistence on the priority of the erotic, impassioned person and visceral personal encounter without which there is no signification or meaning and her lyrical flourishes from theology to cultural theory to the middle ages and back again make this a delicious, electric, and satisfying read." - Lori Branch, Associate Professor of English, The University of Iowa, USA
