| Sumario: | In Body Language in Literature, Barbara Korte has produced an important interdisciplinary study, by establishing a general theory that accounts for the varieties of body language encountered in literary narrative, based on a general history of the phenomenon in the English language.

Salinger, Korte shows body language to be a vital yet unexplored method of communication in literature. |
