'Not just another handbook, this volume will be of great benefit to those interested in literary Gothicism...Mulvey-Roberts deserves congratulations for magisterial editing...A must for all types of libraries.' - B.F. Fisher, Choice 'Not just another handbook, this volume will be of great benefit to those interested in literary Gothicism...The editor has distinguished herself as a leading specialist in Gothicism, and her own entries...are predictably first-rate.
