reviewed Without Alibi on January 07, 2008 Without Alibi
Bakhtin is tough. While not nearly as given to jargon as most writing in the tradition of German philosophy, his concepts are slippery and often abstract. So, a short volume explaining his core concepts is a tremendously useful thing.
Holquist delivers: his scholarship and depth of understanding is impressive, and he's able, largely, to ground difficult concepts in clear prose and solid examples. The bibliography is superb, but only extends to 2000.
One YMMV feature is his repeated use of examples of his own to illustrate Bakhtin's ideas: the analyses of Frankenstein, The Great Gatsby and Gogol's "Notes of A Madman" may or may not be helpful, depending on your field and interests.
