Beatrix Potter was one of the inventors of the contemporary picture
book, and her small novels published at the turn of the twentieth
century are still available and popular today. Writing in Code is
the first book-length study of Potter's work, and it covers the
entire oeuvre, examining all facets of her work in relation to her
private life. Daphne Kutzer reveals the depth of the symbolism in
Potter's work and relates this to the issues of the author's own
development as an independent woman and writer, and her struggles
with domesticity, Unitarianism, and the socio-political issues in
late-19th and early-20th century England. Weaving the subtle themes
inscribed in Potter's own stories with the concerns and temperament
of the author who wrote them, Kutzer exemplifies literary criticism
as it can illuminate the breadth of allusion in children's
literature.
