Ronald Firbank cover

Following the much-deserved rediscovery of early modernist Ronald Firbank's works in the 1980s, this annotated bibliography collects reviews of the satirist's books, synopses of books and essays about Firbank, references to creative works inspired by the author, dissertation and theses abstracts, and even a chapter of foreign-language materials devoted to Firbank. Showcasing an underappreciated artist, this bibliography is a record of how Ronald Firbank has been misinterpreted, praised, lost, and found again.

"In this bibliography Firbank scholar Steven Moore lists and summarizes virtually every review, essay or significant mention of Firbank over the past 90 years, resulting in a fascinating conspectus of how the literary world has reacted to this major minor master." -- Washington Post Book World
