Reviews
"Margaret Marshall Saunders begins the introduction to Beautiful Joe: 'The wonderfully successful book, entitled "Black Beauty," came like a living voice out of the animal kingdom.' Keridiana Chez's superb edition of Saunders's great novel has recalled another vibrant animal voice. Chez not only restores the original 1894 edition-more politically contentious than its many sanitized twentieth-century successors-but she also provides a splendidly thorough introduction and evocative cultural contexts. Now at last there is a definitive edition of Beautiful Joe. I anticipate teaching it with great pleasure, right alongside Black Beauty, where the 'living voice' of the mutilated, loving dog and the ill-used, faithful horse will indeed be beautiful."
