The Demonic

Ewan Fernie is a really innovative, exciting, contemporary literary critic

This book will have an impact in a variety of areas including literature, theology, philosophy, Shakespeare

It offers a personal and engaging narrative alongside the criticism so should also appeal to a less strictly academic market

It is a provocative take on cultural history and modern life and will rock some academic communities

Fernie has just taken up a post as professor at the Shakespeare Insititute and is a rising (or pretty much risen) star in European academia
