S. Wasson

Urban Gothic of the Second World War (eBook, PDF)

Dark London

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines writing in the Gothic mode which subverts the dominant national narrative of the British home front. Instead of seeing wartime experience as a site of fellowship and emotional resilience, Elizabeth Bowen, Anna Kavan, Mervyn Peake, Roy Fuller and others depict shadowy figures on the margin of the nation.
