Reviews
“Graham Matthews' study is an excellent introduction to Self's writing, which is accessible in approach without ever sacrificing intellectual depth or complexity. There are many interesting theoretical interventions throughout which give it range and bite, and he expertly captures the violence, virtuosity, and vitriol of his subject.” (Dr Daniel Lea, Principal Lecturer in Contemporary Literature, Oxford Brookes University, UK)
