“American Babel acts enlighteningly on the proposition that from the outset American literature has looked as much to a multilingual as to an English-language literary record… The twenty-five essays which make up the collection confirm a genuine variety of voice…[and] should help deliver a provocative and timely reminder of what historically have always been the more inclusive languages of America’s literary-cultural voice.”—Year’s Work in English Studies
