Peacock's first novel is situated within its literary and historical contexts via a substantial introduction, generous notes, and annotated appendices.

Recenzje

'With their meticulous notes, rigorous documentation of textual variants and generous contextual appendices (including two unperformed, unpublished farces that Peacock drew on for Headlong Hall), these fine new volumes in the Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock get us closer than ever to the nuances of his satire.' Thomas Keymer, the Times Literary Supplement
