About This Item
A tale of love and intrigue, unfolding through the use of exceedingly loose and voluptous scenes and situations. Perhaps better known for his forgeries of Shakespeare, Will Henry Ireland's versatility as a writer is clearly manifested in this first novel. Steeped in the familiar gothic atmosphere, this work maintains an equallibrium between the objective and the fanatastic world, and anticipates the psychologically-oriented works of Maturin, Mary Shelly, and Poe.
