Beschreibung
A multiple award-winning author, Sarah Waters is one of the most critically and commercially successful novelists writing today. In such novels as
Fingersmith,
Tipping the Velvet,
Affinity and
The Night Watch, her writing has played compellingly with popular and generic forms and narrative techniques and covered a number of important contemporary themes.
This critical guide is the first book to offer a wide range of current critical perspectives on Waters'' work. With chapters written by leading established and emerging scholars the book explores issues such as gender, sexuality, class, time and space in Waters'' fiction, as well as her appropriation of a range of genres from the historical and neo-victorian novel to the gothic. The book also includes a new interview with Waters herself, a timeline of her life, chapter summaries and guides to further reading, making this an essential guide to the work of one of the most exciting voices in contemporary fiction.
