Postal Plots in British Fiction, 1840-1898 - Readdressing Correspondence in Victorian Culture - L. Rotunno - Paperback Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - 2013
Brand: Palgrave Macmillan
Description
By 1840, the epistolary novel was dead. Letters in Victorian fiction, however, were unmistakably alive. Postal Plots explores how Victorian postal reforms unleashed a new and sometimes unruly population into the Victorian literary marketplace where they threatened the definition and development of the Victorian literary professional.
