Rezensionen

"The most important achievements of this book is its successful balance between the encyclopedic scope required to prove the existence and the importance of a literary movement and the close readings necessary to demonstrate the movement's avant-gardism. ... Hanna's Feminism and Avant-Garde Aesthetics in the Levantine Novel represents a valuable intervention in Arab feminist studies, Arab modernist studies, and trauma studies." (Rania Said, H-Levant, networks.h-net.org, August, 2017)
