Sumario:"This guide to the canon of Victorian literature covers 61 novels by authors from Jane Austen to Emile Zola. Brief critical essays describe what each book is about and argue for its cultural, historical and literary importance. Literary canons remain a subject of debate but critics, readers and students continue to find them useful as overviews of the great works within a given period or culture. The Victorian canon is particularly rich with splendid novels that educate, enlighten and entertain."--
