Kirsten MacLeod is a lecturer in English Literature at Newcastle University (UK).

"MacLeod’s book is […] a work of profound generosity that has opened up the world of fin de siècle publishing in manifold ways. I, for one, am eternally grateful for her efforts and will be returning to this book again and again over the years as an invaluable research companion. And as an aesthete I will pore over the beautiful reproductions of the pages of these magazines, delighted to own what is one of the most stylish and attractive academic books I have come across."- Alex Murray, Queen's University Belfast (Journal of American Studies) "American Little Magazines of the Fin de Siècle is an important historical and cultural study, enriching our understanding of this neglected moment in media and publishing history and opens new avenues for research and inquiry."- Karen Leick, University of Illinois at Chicago (University of Toronto Quarterly: Letters in Canada 2018) "MacLeod’s book provides a valuable introduction that includes both an overview of this era and a firm justification for its inclusion within the province of scholarly research." - Elizabeth Meyers Hendrickson, Ohio University (Journal of Magazine Media ) "This is an absorbing account of an overlooked moment in the history of modern periodicals and one that many working in the field will appreciate. It is also a beautifully produced book, with a number of colour plates illustrating some of the curious 'freak periodicals' that helped shape the format and nature of the 'little magazine' for the twentieth century." - Andrew Thacker (Literature and History) "[American Little Magazines of the Fin de Siecle] is a very comprehensive effort, and has something for everyone, from text and interpretation to research tools."- David M. Sokol (The Journal of American Culture 41.4.)
