Book Reviews
My book reviews appear in scholarly journals and popular media.
Below is a curated book reviews list. Publishers of fiction and some academic books can get in touch to suggest review ideas via Substack or LinkedIn (see Contact page).
I am especially interested in reading more of the following genres: mysteries and thrillers; experimental literature; literary biographies and theory; philosophy and history of philosophy; obscure historical authors and overlooked historical themes.
