Reviews

"Wearn succeeds in complicating the ways in which we think about sentimental literature and the expectations of motherhood... the text makes a solid contribution to considerations of gender and culture in nineteenth-century America."

- Roxanne Harde, Journal of the Association for Research on Mothering
