?Marx's perceptive, crisply written monograph, which also includes a selected bibliography and an Andersen chronology, provides a wealth of quotes that not only serve as a foundation for her textual readings, but give the reader unacquainted with Andersen's work an opportunity to experience it at length. Thus her book is appropriate both for those seeking an introduction to Andersen and for those already familiar with him. ... Overall, by showing how Andersen uses humor to seriously explore the complex ethical and existential problems facing the individual in the modern world, Marx enables the reader to appreciate Andersen's art, his commitment to humanistic values, and his contribution to Western literature. Benny Andersen will no doubt foster what is long overdue: a greater interest in Andersen's work in the English-speaking world.?-Studies in the Humanities
