So this is a major study, one whose implications should be taken on board and contemplated by literary critics everywhere. It may come as a relief to Joyceans to know that Corser’s next work is to be devoted to contemporary […] writing: it means they may have something left to write about.

– Terence Killeen, Dublin Review of Books

...Any literary scholar who engages with canonical authors would benefit from the critical attitude and bold scrutiny of Corser’s study. [...] When Corser takes stock of the Joyce field, it is with the community in mind, attending to reports of conferences as well as pure criticism, unpacking intersectionality and what could be termed embodied criticism. It is an important critical posture that speaks to Corser’s own readings, affirming for young scholars in particular that there is more to say about Ulysses and affirming, too, in line with her argument, that our readings serve the purpose of the time in which we write.

– Emily Bell, The Modernist Review

… a work of scholarship that is rigorous and rich in its analysis, leaving readers with a more in-depth awareness of how and why we engage with Joyce’s work.
