Gothic Tales by Elizabeth Gaskell
The stories in this collection combine realism and fantasy. The themes are familiar from Gaskell's novels, but their treatment is revealingly different, ranging from ghost stories and comic fantasy, to a realistic tale of 17th-century witch trials.Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-65) wrote her first novel, MARY BARTON, in 1848 as a distraction from her sorrow at the death of her only son in infancy. It won the attention of Dickens and was followed by 5 other full-length novels as well as numerous short stories and novellas.
Laura Kranzler has written on Mary Shelley and Virginia Woolf and has published a novel.
