This collection of 32 Vicrorian Love Stories is a great read.It features stories by Victorian "big guns" like Gaskell, Trollope, James, Wilde, and Maugham, and stories by writers with whom I wasn't familiar. While these stories center around love, some of them are quite surprising. There are tales of suicide, fantasy, the supernatural, and love gone wrong.A number were quite dark. So many novels in the Victorian Age questioned a woman's place in society, society in general, and class struggle. These short stories address the same issues.I'll be checking my local library and Amazon to find other works by the writers I was unfamilar with.There are no bad stories in this collection, and by the time you've read one or two of them, you'll be into that Victorian pattern of writing that shows why so much of it is considered classical! A GREAT read. |
