Author Biography
Stephen Matterson is Professor of English and Head of the School of English at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. Darryl Jones is Senior Lecturer in English at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland.
ReviewsIts great virtue lies in the amount of questions it raises. [The authors'] enthusiasm, engagement and occasional knowingly facetious asides should appeal to, and enlighten, bright [students]. They will also find the glossary of technical and theoretical terms very useful. * The Times Educational Supplement (Website) *
