Let's be honest: the particulars of my research are not of, shall we say, universal interest. And so if I tell you that there's a new book that's redefining the field, you're probably not going to go out and spend $40/£24 on it. But hey, just in case, Ian Duncan's Scott's Shadow: The Novel in Romantic Edinburgh is absolutely fascinating - not just a rethinking of Scott, Galt and Hogg, but in many ways a new approach to the idea of national literature itself. The link above will get you to the first chapter, if you're interested...

I may have - relatively - exciting news myself, soon. Stay tuned. No, it's not a job.
