Reviews for Dystopian Fiction East And West
"Dystopian Fiction East and West is thorough, meticulous, and insightful - in short, first-class scholarship. Gottlieb's chapter on "Kafka's Ghost" is a gem, and the concluding essay is a comprehensive analysis of dystopian literary criticism, coupled with a sober estimate of the future of dystopian thought. Gottlieb's expertness in this field is astounding, and she brings several important writers to the forefront who deserve to be better known outside their homelands. She conveys the suffering of people in the twentieth century without capitulating to ideology or wallowing in cynicism. Her book is a masterpiece." Dennis Rohatyn, Department of Philosophy, University of San Diego "Dystopian Fiction East and West is a major asset in the field of utopian/dystopian studies, as well as an excellent introduction to an important aspect of recent East European political and literary activity. It is the kind of study that utopian/dystopian scholars should keep on their shelves for years to come." Arthur O. Lewis, professor emeritus of English, College of the Liberal Arts, The Pennsylvania State University
