"Gallop is our foremost comic theorist. Anecdotal theory, as she observes, is theory with a better sense of humor. Gallop shows us how to be smart and rigorous precisely by "refusing" to 'get serious, ' explaining how that imperative in fact makes literary critics relinquish what we do best. Lightening up without in any way producing theory 'lite': this is one formulation of Gallop's goal and considerable accomplishment, both here and throughout her career."--Joseph Litvak, author of "Strange Gourmets: Sophistication, Theory, and the Novel"
