520 | _aIn this first book-length introduction to the writer and her work, Suzanne Elizabeth Reid presents a finely crafted analysis of the complexities of plot, character, language, and theme distinguishing Voigt's fiction. Writing in an accessible style, Reid commences with an intriguing biographical sketch that draws on a rare, unpublished interview. Subsequent chapters then examine each of the published works, grouped by the central motifs Reid identifies in Voigt's fiction: defining the self; reaching out, holding on, and letting go; ways of knowing; heroic ventures; and daring to live authentically. A closing chapter, "Voigt's Essential Ideas," synthesizes and crystallizes the elements that make this writer one of the most gifted voices in young adult literature today. | ||
