My review of Jo Waugh’s fantastic monograph - Charlotte #Brontë and Contagion - is out. It’s a brilliant health/medical humanities book for #Victorianists. Free access to my review via this link: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Unsurprisingly, #meta has stolen some of my academic books, edited books, journal articles & reviews without my permission to train #AI. Pure theft. Academic publishing houses need to stand with non-academic publishers in defending our #copyright 😡
