This concise new book provides close readings of both canonical and less familiar novels and articles by the novelist Margaret Oliphant (1828-97). They show how she maintained a spirited dialogue with her age, confronting its ingrained prejudices, while reinforcing some of them herself.

Other edited work includes two volumes of Records of Girlhood (Ashgate, 2000 and 2012), anthologies of nineteenth-century women's childhoods, and she has also published widely on Harriet Martineau, most recently a co-edited essay collection, with Gaby Weiner, Harriet Martineau and the Birth of Disciplines (Routledge, 2016).
