Recenzje

'The tension between collective creativity and individual genius is again under inspection, this time by Russell McDonald in Modernist Literary Collaborations Between Men and Women … Conflict underpins much of the work described in the book. The author calls it a 'discord aesthetic' and goes so far as to suggest that a distinctive modernist style was the direct result of productive tensions and inequalities between men and women.' Jade French, Times Literary Supplement
