Cole's close readings of violence in the work of some of the major modernists are superb* Lauren Arrington, The Times Literary Supplement *
At the Violet Hour is also striking in terms of what it leaves out: a full-scale exploration of the Great War, arguably the defining event in the concatenation of modernism and violence. * Paul Sheehan, Review of English Studies *
Cole's well-written, formidably researched book is a treasure trove of incisive readings that will surely become a classic ... Highly recommended. * D. Stuber, CHOICE *
