Reviews for Elfriede Jelinek
This collection extends the reception and understanding of Jelinek in the non-German-speaking world, surveys virtually all of Jelinek's major works, and brings a general reader up to date in the field of Jelinek research. It is an admirable and useful part of Jelinek scholarship.
