Victorian Love Stories: An Oxford Anthology by Kate Flint

Studying these stories for an academic paper would probably be a lot of fun; not so much reading for pleasure. The usual tropes abound: the beautiful woman who dies of sorrow because she has an abusive husband, the captain who never loves again after finding comfort in the arms of a native lass, old lovers who are finally about to reunite after a lifetime apart--but die before they can meet...etc. All very melancholy, and very silly. These stories are practically parodies of Victorian show more sensibility. I shudder to think of their effects on unsuspected minds of the time. show less
