Recensioner i media

In this highly original and impeccably researched study, Christopher Rosenmeier redraws the boundaries of modernism in Chinese fiction, through a comparative stylistic analysis of a set of works that were previously considered to be at the opposite ends of the spectrum of "serious" and "popular" literature. His contribution to the study of the wartime authors Xu Xu and Wumingshi is especially invaluable, as these hugely important writers have received only scant attention from scholars so far.　On the Margins of Modernism　truly is a milestone and will remain a standard reference for students of Chinese modernism for many years to come.
