Understanding Anita Brookner is written by Cheryl Alexander Malcolm and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1570034354 (ISBN 10) and 9781570034350 (ISBN 13).
Alexander (American studies and literature, U. of Gdansk, Poland), who has written about other Jewish authors, explores the bleak worldview of a British novelist from a Polish-Jewish background. She analyzes Brookner's zoom-in portrayal of her protagonists' faith in a better world despite exile, loneliness, and acceptance of authority and a class system, in 19 short novels from The Debut (1981) to Undue Influence (1999).
