Literature as Witness: Five Masterworks ad Dei Gloriam

it was ok

bookshelves: literary-criticism

A short summation would be to say that Literature as Witness feels very confused about what constitutes effective literary criticism while proposing a thesis that is, simply put, too large. The consequence is a book that meanders through five close-readings without tying together any substantial larger claim or academic assertion.

My full review is available on Theologian's Library.
