The Cambridge Introduction to Jean Rhys（ISBN=9780521695435） 下载 pdf 百度网盘 epub 免费 2025 电子书 mobi 在线

Since her death in 1979, Jean Rhys's reputation as an important

modernist author has grown. Her finely crafted prose fiction lends

itself to multiple interpretations from radically different

critical perspectives; formalism, feminism, and postcolonial

studies among them. This Introduction offers a reliable and

stimulating account of her life, work, contexts and critical

reception. Her masterpiece, Wide Sargasso Sea, is analyzed together

with her other novels, including Quartet and After Leaving Mr

Mackenzie, and her short stories. Through close readings of the

works, Elaine Savory reveals their common themes and connects these

to different critical approaches. The book maps Rhys's fictional

use of the actual geography of Paris, London and the Caribbean,

showing how key understanding her relationships with the

metropolitan and colonial spheres is to reading her texts. In this

invaluable introduction for students, Savory explains the

significance of Rhys as a writer both in her lifetime and

today.
