Preview Urban Gothic of the Second World War: Dark London

Description:
Nominated for the Allan Lloyd Smith Memorial Prize for the best book published on the Gothic 2009/2010, awarded by the International Gothic Association! 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.
