Recensioner i media

“It is a pleasure to encounter a thoughtful, illuminating analysis of a familiar novel that offers a fresh and innovative perspective. ... The Romantic Legacy of Charles Dickens is Cook’s extensive research, presented in a way that is readable, accessible and clear, avoiding the pitfall of making the book sound like a doctoral dissertation. ... the book will ultimately create a fruitful legacy of its own among future scholars.” (Sara L. Pearson, Brontë Studies, Vol. 44 (4), October, 2019)“Strengths of this study include its extensive close readings, attention to historical and cultural context, and identification of parallels between Romantic and Dickensian imagery. While the book will primarily be useful to literary scholars or humanists working on Dickens, it will also appeal to historians or scholars in cultural studies interested in the effects of industrialization, science, technology, modernity, and urbanization on the individual and society.” (Kristen Starkowski, Journal of Victorian Culture, March 14, 2019)
