Breaking down the complex aural and visual components, Sheehan focuses on the movement and clothing of two women on screen, demonstrating how they provide information on German and Afghan culture, concepts of history, time, sartorial tradition, state making, power, and gender. While each of the main chapters echoes in some way this formula of linking literature and popular culture through fashion, only one of the chapters compares the figure of fashion designer with that of modernist author. The book's extensive footnotes and its exhaustive bibliography are excellent resources for students and scholars of literature and fashion, as well as for specialists of modernist work. Besides a brief but engaging discussion of Italian Futurist manifestos on dress, the anglophone focus of this work unfortunately—but understandably given the parameters of the discussion—leaves out modernism beyond America and England.
