Kritik
"A scholarly volume offering thought-provoking readings of Woolf's novels in pleasantly readable prose, concentrating on characters' walks through the capital. ... readers looking specifically for geocritically inflected criticism of Woolf's fictional London wanderings are likely to be well satisfied with what they find, as will most general readers, too. ... Larson's readable study shows that a geocritical approach opens up useful, worthwhile and interesting readings of Woolf's comments on class and sex and place." (Mary Ellen Foley, Virginia Woolf Bulletin, Issue 60, January, 2019)

"A meticulous and comprehensive addition to studies of Woolf's walking, Lisbeth Larsson's book sets out to trace ... an inductive survey of the actual walks taken by various characters which uses the tools of literary geography to draw insightful conclusions about Woolf's political demarcations of London and her critiques of class, patriarchy, and colonialism." (Elisa Kay Sparks, Woolf Studies Annual, Vol. 25, 2019)mehr
