Manton / On Suburban
Souls / essay In this insightful essay on the underground classic of the Victorian Era, Suburban Souls, Manton discusses the psychological impact of obsession in the novel, specifically erotic jealousy, in the context of its date of publication. The essay is followed by an excerpt from the book, which Manton prefaces by saying, "Had the great novelists of the later nineteenth century permitted themselves the range of such subject matter, this might well have been the sort of chapter which resulted." |
