"[T]he compelling argument of Vredenburgh in this groundbreaking analysis of three prominent French authors ... delves into each author separately, highlighting their disruption of conceptual categories and use of the fantastic to reshape our collective imagery... Highly recommended [for] advanced undergraduates through faculty." --CHOICE
