«With her perceptive textual analyses, and the extensive dialogue she establishes between the novels and the social, historical and cultural questions they mobilise, Cambiaghi does justice to the interdisciplinary and cross-cultural aspects of Byatt's fiction, in a volume that will no doubt become essential reading to scholars, students and perceptive Byatt fans alike.»(Barbara Franchi, C21 Literature: Journal of 21st-Century Writings, 9 (1), 2021)
