How to Read the Victorian Novel

"Reading How to Read the Victorian Novel, I found myself nodding along, admiring the vigor and clarity with which Levine articulate what we all ready know. . . until I was brought up short by the recognition that 1 didn't actually know these things, so simply and so fundamentally, until Levine had said them in this book." (Victorian Studies, Winter 2010)“Any student of Victorian fiction and culture will benefit from reading this refreshing reexamination of the major Victorian novels. Recommended.” (Choice Reviews, October 2008)
