The British journalist Kate Webb has posted three substantial essays, all built around I'm Dying Laughing. Those essays are: "The American Dilemma: The Comedy of Life and Death in I’m Dying Laughing", "The Hollywood Background", and "Christina Stead and the Problems of Placing an Author".
She writes:
