Dr Éamonn Dunne is a teacher of English at Coláiste Chraobh Abhann school in Kilcoole, Co. Wicklow, Ireland. He is the author of J. Hillis Miller and the Possibilities of Reading: Literature after Deconstruction (2010) and has research interests in pedagogy, popular culture, queer theory and narratology. He is currently co-writing a third book on queer theory and literature with Michael O'Rourke.J. Hillis Miller is one of the leading American literary critics of the past half-century. Together with Paul de Man, Harold Bloom, and Geoffrey Hartman he was part of "The Yale School" of deconstruction, which heavily influenced and popularized deconstruction in contemporary literary criticism. He is currently Distinguished Research Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of California Irvine, USA.Julian Wolfreys is a Professor of Modern Literature and Culture with the Department of English and Drama at Loughborough University, UK. The author and editor of numerous books and articles, his most recent publications are Writing London III: Inventions of the City (Palgrave) and Transgression: Identity, Place, Time (Palgrave).

It would not be unfair to say that Eamonn Dunne knows Hillis Miller better than the eminent critic and literary theorist knows himself. This is another invaluable addition to the secondary literature on Miller. With it Dunne reminds us of the essential nature of Miller's writing for the study of literature today. Reading Reading Theory Now I am persuaded by Dunne that Miller remains our most vital and remarkable thinker of literature; without a familiarity with Miller any training in reading literature would be incomplete. Perhaps, it is where that training should begin. Dunne has rendered us all a great service once more.
