Recensioner i media
'These Pickering and Chatto editions are the first to collate all the different editions that appeared in Disraeli's lifetime. They show what his twenty and thirty-year-old self had dared to put into print as well as what his forty-year-old self took out and tried to hush up. For four of the six novels, comparison of the different editions now be made for the first time ... expertly placing the works in a hitherto uncertain literary territory somewhere between the Romantics and the heyday of Dickens.'
