Reviews

An excellent, indispensable volume, which is impressive in its breadth, depth, and detail. It offers a wealth of material not only for anyone who teaches a course on Gothic traditions in Britain, Ireland, and the United States but also for anyone who teaches the nineteenth-century British novel in general, Sarah Orne Jewett, contemporary American film, or any number of other specific topics covered here. A substantial contribution to the field of Gothic studies.
