reviewed Anxieties Of Empire And The Fiction Of Intrigue on January 25, 2014 Anxieties Of Empire And The Fiction Of Intrigue
Overly burdened with theory and showing evidence of having begun life as a dissertation. If I weren't a stolid reader of literary criticism I'd have grown impatient with the author's continual reiteration of themes and the tiresome summaries -- at the beginnings and ends of chapters and often in the middles as well -- of what he was about to say or had said. However, a useful guide to the subject and avoids the more obvious pitfalls.
