Opis

This work examines the representation of selfhood in adolescent and children's fiction, using a Bakhtinian approach to subjectivity, language and narrative.

Recenzje

"McCallum's book rewards multiple readings and will be necessary reading for anyone viewing adolescent literature through dialogism. It is also (because of its glossary and highly readable explanations of the relationships among concepts like polyphony, heteroglossia, dialogism) a good introduction to Bahktin for scholars of children's and adolescent fiction. I left the book with a better understanding of the importance of both dialogism as a way of reading and of adolescent fiction as a dialogic art form." -- The Lion and the Unicorn
