Alison Case Libri

Alison Case crea narrative che approfondiscono le complessità del genere e della narrazione all'interno dei romanzi britannici del XVIII e XIX secolo. La sua competenza accademica negli studi vittoriani e nella teoria della narrazione informa profondamente il suo distintivo approccio letterario. Case rivisita figure letterarie classiche, offrendo nuove prospettive ed esplorando le dimensioni inespresse dei personaggi femminili. Il suo lavoro invita i lettori a riconsiderare storie familiari attraverso una lente di sfumata analisi dei personaggi e sofisticata tecnica narrativa.
