Rezensionen

"Hanna Meretoja has written an important, even essential, study of postwar French literary history. ... her study could well serve as a more general intellectual and cultural history of postwar France ... . her study embodies that very dialogical narrativity that is the great achievement of the postwar crisis and return of storytelling." (Charles R. Sullivan, Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature, newprairiepress.org, Vol. 41 (2), 2017)
