’Significantly, Gambaudo does the groundwork by which contemporary presumptions about psychoanalysis and its place in cultural criticism might be rethought.’ The Bible & Critical Theory ’... there is no doubt Gambaudo's book represents a thorough, scholarly engagement with Kristeva's work, asserting the value of deep psychoanalytic insights into contemporary forms of culture, and the political implications of such insights. It is an important contribution and corrective to readings of Kristeva, but it is also provocative and politically timely in its own right.’ Hypatia
