Reviews
'A splendid achievement! Berman's argument ... is wholly persuasive. This elegantly written book forces a trenchant rethinking of the underlying social impulses of modernism as a whole.' Laura Doyle, author of Bordering on the Body
'In this substantial, genuinely interdisciplinary and original book, Berman enters important discussions currently re-mapping modernist studies and makes a significant contribution to women's studies. Most notably, she gives us definitions of community that incorporate the private, the domestic, and the lost contributions of small specialized groups.' Bonnie Kime Scott, author of Refiguring Modernism
