Reviews
Olga Pugliese, Department of Italian Studies, University of Toronto:
'An excellent piece of scholarship ... [that] identifies a literary genre - that of self-commentary - more precisely and profoundly than has been the case with previous critics, defines it in an original manner ... and offers insightful readings of the texts. Impeccably written.'
