"The Madwoman and the Blindman engages, interrogates, and carries
out disability studies scholarship and critical approaches to a
singular and major literary text, Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre. To
my knowledge, it is the only volume of its kind and it will be a
much-discussed contribution to disability studies." --Brenda Jo
Brueggemann, professor of English, The Ohio State University
"Literary academics who have been meaning to investigate disability
studies but have not done so will discover, with pleasure, an
approach that can open up well-known texts to fresh readings. Not
only that: they will also experience some consciousness-raising.
The Madwoman and the Blindman is a welcome addition both to Brontë
scholarship and to disability studies." --Beth Newman, associate
professor of English and Director of Women's and Gender Studies,
Southern Methodist University
