About this book
Reviews
"Understanding something that encompasses centuries of individual works in multiple mediums is a challenge. Focusing on the evolution of the child motif, Georgieva's impressive study introduces readers to individual texts and provides an overview. Essential reading for students of Gothic!" - Carol Senf, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA
"Reading this book is like peering into a trunk of long forgotten and highly loved novels. Instantly readable and highly engrossing, Margarita Georgieva's thorough study is sure to become a staple in the genre for academics, classrooms, and Gothic aficionados alike." - Curt Herr, Kutztown University, USA
"This first significant and substantial study of the role of children in Gothic literature is essential reading for students and scholars alike. Well researched and critically informed, Georgieva's study allows us to view the Gothic Child as never before." - Franz Potter, author of The History of Gothic Publishing, 1764-1830
