"Anne B. Simpson's Territories of the Psyche is a remarkably systematic Kleinian reading of the fiction of Jean Rhys that shows how both Rhys and Kleinian psychoanalysis cohere in new and unexpected ways. Rhys is a principal link in a chain of feminist modernists that includes Virginia Woolf and Willa Cather, and whose great progenitor is Katherine Mansfield. The international status of feminist modernism reflects its thematic concern with the shifting status of boundaries in both psychical life and the material structures upon which it is propped. Here Simpson's use of Klein proves invaluable in showing how political the psychological is in modern fiction and in modern psychoanalysis." - Perry Meisel, Professor of English, New York University
