Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the Victorian-era fascination with storytelling through letters. Letters were not just a means of communication in the nineteenth century, but a source of entertainment. The epistolary novel of the time used this form as a medium for social commentary, humor, and romantic intrigue. The author takes a new look at the era's most famous letter writers, showing how these novelists utilized letter-writing to transform the epistolary novel into an art form of its own. While they may have been forgotten today, these novelists helped define an era when letter-writing was more than just a way of sharing day-to-day activities, but a captivating and scandalous art form of its own.
