  • Women and Romance

    The Consolations of Gender in the English Novel

  • Good Form

    The Ethical Experience of the Victorian Novel

    What do we mean when we say that a novel's conclusion "feels right"? How did feeling, form, and the sense of right and wrong get mixed up, during the nineteenth century, in the experience of reading a novel?
