'Jacob Jewusiak's Aging, Duration, and the English Novel is a welcome contribution to the burgeoning critical interest in age that the humanities is currently experiencing … Aging, Duration, and the English Novel successfully demonstrates that scholarly engagement with the category of age can generate interesting new interpretations of well-known works … [it] makes a valuable contribution not just to literary age studies, but also to ongoing debates within the humanities about the value of recognising age as a master identity on par with gender, race, and class.' Caitlin Doley, BAVS Newsletter

'… offers compelling new approaches to the study of age and aging in nineteenth-century literature.' David McAllister, Victorian Studies
