Reviews for German Novelists of the Weimar Republic (Studies in German Literature Linguistics and Culture)
Unlike many collections by various hands, this book has a clearly enunciated and well-executed programme: to explore the political aspects of being a novelist in the Weimar Republic. . . . [It is] beautifully produced . . . . I recommend that every institution dealing with German Studies should have at least one copy in its library.
