Produktbeschreibung

'Popular Victorian women writers' is a collection of essays on a variety of women writers working within the Victorian literary marketplace. Diverse and inclusive, the great strength of this book is that its emphasis on neglected writers and refreshing new angles on more widely known authors sends its readers back eagerly to the primary texts.
