The book features poems and prose that imitate the styles of well-known Romantic and Gothic writers such as Edgar Allen Poe, Sir Walter Scott, and Charles Dickens. While primarily comedic, the book also offers social commentary on the Victorian era and is credited with inspiring many later authors, including W.S. Gilbert of Gilbert and Sullivan fame.
