Recensioner i media

“This is a thoroughly remarkable book. … Barrows’s approach clearly demonstrates that geo-criticism, combined with textual analysis that is spatial, is up to the task of making apparent complex spatial and temporal configurations in literary narratives.” (Heike Polster,Kronoscope, Issue 20, 2020)
