Editorial Reviews

Review

?In the smorgasbord of its twenty-nine pieces [this volume] samples as widely as has yet been done the still dispersed elements of a satisfactory modern explanation of fantasy. ... Each essay offers at least a few fine insights, a credit to the editors who selected them as well as to the authors. ... If these pieces are representative, the Conference that collected them must have been exhilarating. All libraries that acquire literary criticism must have this volume.?-Fantasy Review
