Reviews
'Daley has succeeded in tracing the appeal of correspondence as a method of self-expression to the artists' aspiration and convictions.' GERMANIC NOTES & REVIEWS 'A useful introduction to the life and works of these three fascinating but complex writers.' COLLOQUIA GERMANICA ' Daley has succeeded in illustrating textually that the inner lives of the women under review possessed their own dynamic, often quite distinct from what was happening in thepublic sphere of their marriages, friendships and social lives.' MODERN LANGUAGE REVIEW
