This book takes major strides toward the transformation of law and literature into a genuinely interdisciplinary amalgam of differing forms of knowledge. Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.

She is a general editor of the European Journal of English Studies (EJES), and, with Jeanne Gaakeer, the co-founder of the European Network for Law and Literature.
