Reviews
Keats and Shelley: Winds of Light shows one what criticismought to be and mostly is not. Everest's collection deserves to be on the shelves of all Romanticists aspiring or tenured, and in every research library worth its name. It is a testament to a critical career lived well and living still. * Bysshe Inigo Coffey, Balliol College, University of Oxford, The Wordsworth Circle *
It is a mark of his distinction and originality as a scholar that something that might seem as hoary as Shelleys Platonism should get such an invigorating new breath of life, the culmination of this consistently pleasurable and illuminating book. * Seamus Perry, Balliol College, Oxford, UK, The Review of English Studies *
